Bill Summary
A BILL To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to provide that amounts paid for an abortion are not taken into account for purposes of the deduction for medical expenses.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to prohibit taxpayers from claiming expenses related to abortions as medical expenses when calculating their tax deductions. Specifically, the bill would modify Section 213 of the tax code by adding a new subsection that explicitly states that any amount paid for an abortion during a taxable year cannot be included in medical expense deductions. The proposed change would apply to all taxable years beginning after the date of the bill's enactment. Currently, taxpayers can deduct medical expenses that exceed 7.5% of their adjusted gross income, and this bill would effectively exclude abortion-related expenses from that calculation. The bill is titled the "Abortion Is Not Health Care Act of 2025" and represents a legislative effort to limit tax benefits for abortion-related medical expenses.
