AI Summary

This bill, the Securing America's R&D Advantage Act, aims to restore immediate expensing for research and development (R&D) investments and expand the refundable research credit for new and small businesses. The key provisions include: 1) Amending the Internal Revenue Code to allow taxpayers to treat R&D expenditures as expenses that can be deducted, rather than capitalized, unless the expenditures are attributable to research conducted in certain foreign countries deemed "covered nations"; 2) Increasing the cap on the refundable research credit for new and small businesses, and extending the eligibility period and applicability of the election; and 3) Increasing the access to the research credit for qualified small businesses by allowing them to claim a higher credit rate and special rules for determining the average qualified research expenses.
