📢 CAL EANGUS Stands with Assemblymember James R 📢 CAL EANGUS Stands with Assemblymember James Ramos for AB 53! 🇺🇸 Today, CAL EANGUS State President Josh J. Baker joined Assemblymember James C. Ramos at a press conference to highlight the importance of AB 53, the Military Services Retirement and Surviving Spouse Benefit Payment Act. President Baker addressed the press, emphasizing how AB 53 will provide much-needed tax relief by exempting up to $20,000 of military retirement pay and SBP annuities from California state income taxes. This bill ensures that California remains competitive with other states in retaining military retirees while supporting surviving spouses who have sacrificed so much. We are proud to stand with Assemblymember Ramos and our partners in the fight to make California a better home for those who have served. Let’s get AB 53 passed! 💪 📺 Watch the press conference here: https://vimeo.com/1066752136/2efba473dd?share=copy #SupportOurVets #AB53 #CALeg #MilitaryRetirement #CAL_EANGUS #NGAC #VeteranTaxRelief
📢 Advocating for Our Military Retirees! 🇺🇸 On March 17, 2025, CAL EANGUS State President Josh J. Baker provided expert testimony in support of Assemblymember James C. Ramos' AB 53, the Military Services Retirement and Surviving Spouse Benefit Payment Act. This bill seeks to exempt up to $20,000 of military retirement pay and Survivor Benefit Plan (SBP) annuities from California state income taxes, offering crucial relief to our veterans and their families. Joining him in support was Peter Cross, President of the National Guard Association of California (NGAC), showcasing a unified effort by both professional associations that represent California National Guardsmen. 🎥 Watch the full testimony here: https://www.assembly.ca.gov/media/assembly-revenue-and-taxation-20250317 Why AB 53 Matters: ✅ Financial Relief: Helps military retirees and surviving spouses keep more of their earned benefits. ✅ Retaining Skilled Veterans: Encourages retired service members to stay in California, strengthening our workforce. ✅ Supporting Families: Provides financial stability to surviving spouses of fallen heroes. By reducing the tax burden on those who have served, AB 53 honors their dedication and encourages them to continue enriching our state. Let’s stand together to support our veterans and their families! CAL-EANGUS is proud to sponsor this bill and thanks Assemblymember James Ramos for championing this bill! #SupportOurVets #AB53 #CALeg #MilitaryRetirement #CALEANGUS #NGAC #CALGUARD
