To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to exclude from gross income charitable distributions from certain employer-sponsored retirement plans, and for other purposes.
This bill allows individuals aged 70 and a half or older to donate money directly from their employer-sponsored retirement accounts to qualified charities without counting the donation as taxable income. It expands an existing tax provision by including various types of employer plans, such as 403(b) and 457(b) plans, alongside traditional qualified plans. Under the new rules, the amount excluded from gross income is limited to the excess of the annual standard distribution limit over any other tax-free distributions the person made that year. The legislation applies to distributions made in taxable years beginning after the bill is enacted.
