It is further proposed that the Military Family Relief Fund be supported by a voluntary check-off box allowing taxpayers to contribute to the fund from their income tax return.

To establish a Military Family Relief Fund in the state allowing taxpayers to contribute to said fund from their income tax return through a check-off box.
