REDLANDS, Calif. (KABC) -- Veterans have served and sacrificed for our nation, and on Tuesday, the state of California announced a new law to help them in retirement.

That law will exempt part of their military pensions from state income tax.

At American Legion Post 106 in Redlands, Assemblymember James Ramos (D-San Bernardino) stood before retired veterans and their families to share news many had long waited to hear: starting in 2025, California will exempt part of their military pensions from state income tax.
