This bill would change the federal tax code so that pay people receive for temporary work as poll workers in elections for public office is not counted as income for federal income tax purposes. The pay would still count as wages for employment taxes, such as Social Security and Medicare taxes. The Treasury Secretary would write rules to carry out the change. It would apply to poll worker pay received after December 31, 2025.
