This resolution supports the preservation of the stepped-up basis tax rule that allows recipients of inherited assets such as land, equipment, or buildings to adjust the cost basis of the assets to reflect their fair market value.

Maddy summaryHRES 1010 is a resolution proposing to remove the December 18, 2019, impeachment of President Donald Trump from the official record. It argues the impeachment lacked constitutional evidence of "high Crimes and Misdemeanors," claiming Articles I and II relied on vague accusations, hearsay, and political motives rather than proven misconduct. The resolution asserts the impeachment was improperly based on unsubstantiated claims about a phone call with Ukraine's president and an anonymous whistleblower complaint. As a symbolic procedural resolution, it does not alter legal outcomes but seeks to erase the impeachment from congressional history.

This resolution honors the life and legacy of the late Representative Don Young and directs the Sergeant at Arms to designate a Don Young Reserved Seat on the floor of the chamber of the House of Representatives.
