Asst. Minority Leader and ACT Teachers Representative France Castro has appealed to senators to pass the bill exempting from taxes allowances and other earnings received by persons rendering election service.

Castro said House Bill 9652 has been approved in the Lower House may be implemented in the May elections if passed on time in the Senate.

She noted that most of election service volunteers are public school teachers who have to face the dangers of COVID-19 infection while on duty. “Imposing tax on the honoraria and allowances of election service volunteers destroys the spirit and intent of the Election Service Reform Act, which is to compensate the hardships of persons rendering election service. They must therefore enjoy the compensation in full and not bear additional burdens,” said Castro.
