military retirement is non-taxable in Alabama. How do I get turbo tax to not include it in state taxes?

2023 Code of Alabama Title 40 - Revenue and Taxation. Chapter 18 - Income Taxes. Article 1 - General Provisions. Section 40-18-20 - Exemptions - Military Retirement Benefits. https://law.justia.com/codes/alabama/title-40/chapter-18/article-1/section-40-18-20/
