ABLE MATCH (Making Able a Tool to Combat Hardship) Act
This bill, known as the ABLE MATCH Act, aims to help individuals with disabilities save money by providing a federal tax credit that is automatically deposited into their ABLE savings accounts. The program targets low-income earners by offering a 100% match on up to $2,000 of annual contributions, provided their income falls below 200% of the federal poverty limit, with the credit amount gradually decreasing for higher incomes. To support wider adoption, the legislation also authorizes the Treasury to award $5 million annually in grants to states for promoting these accounts and includes a requirement for collecting demographic data on account holders. These changes are designed to increase financial security for people with disabilities by encouraging savings without jeopardizing their eligibility for other government benefits.
