Bill Summary

A bill to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to limit the amount of certain qualified conservation contributions. This bill limits the aggregate amount of a partner's annual tax deductions for qualified conservation contributions of a partnership to 2.5 times the partner's adjusted basis in the partnership. (Under current law, a "qualified conservation contribution" is the contribution of a qualified real property interest to a qualified organization exclusively for conservation purposes.) The limitation applies for the first three taxable years after the individual becomes a partner in the partnership. It does not apply to certain family partnerships.

AI Summary

This bill aims to amend the Internal Revenue Code to limit the amount of qualified conservation contributions that partners can deduct from their annual tax returns. Specifically, it caps the aggregate amount of such deductions for a partner to 2.5 times the partner's adjusted basis in the partnership, for the first three taxable years after the partner joins the partnership. This limitation does not apply to family partnerships where substantially all of the partnership interests are held by related individuals. The bill also grants the Secretary of the Treasury the authority to issue regulations to carry out and prevent the avoidance of this new provision.
