## Summary

**Ends federal tax on Social Security benefits.** The bill removes Social Security payments from taxpayers' gross income and adjusted gross income for taxable years after enactment and creates a funding fix to protect trust funds from any lost transfers. - Seniors and Social Security recipients: Social Security benefits will no longer be counted in gross income or adjusted gross income for future taxable years, which raises after-tax income for beneficiaries. - Social insurance and retirement funds: Each fund under the Social Security Act (including the Federal Hospital Insurance Trust Fund) and funds under the Railroad Retirement Act of 1974 will receive annual Treasury appropriations equal to any reduction in transfers caused by the repeal, so those funds see no net transfer loss. *This bill increases federal outlays by requiring annual Treasury payments that replace transfers otherwise directed to Social Security, Medicare Hospital Insurance, and Railroad Retirement funds.*
