Quiver AI Summary
Bill introduced on commuter benefits: Rep. Laura Gillen and fellow Long Island lawmakers said they introduced the bipartisan, bicameral COVID-19 Commuter Benefits Distribution Act. The proposal would let workers access money left in commuter benefit accounts after many shifted to remote or hybrid work during the pandemic.
What the measure would do: The release says some workers have thousands of dollars in these accounts that current IRS rules keep from being withdrawn or spent elsewhere. The bill would create a temporary exception so the funds could be returned to employees as taxable income. A Senate companion bill was also introduced.
