United States · United States Congress · 25 July 2024

Wildfire Victim Tax Relief and Recovery Act This bill allows farmers to defer taxes on gain from the sale or exchange of livestock because of a fire. (Conditions apply.)

Currently, farmers may defer gain on the sale or exchange of livestock (other than poultry) held for draft, breeding, or dairy purposes due to drought, flood, or other weather-related conditions for two years (four years if attributable to a federally-declared disaster). Otherwise, under current law, gain on the sale of livestock (including poultry) due to such weather-related conditions attributable to a federally-declared disaster may be deferred for one year. (Conditions apply.) The bill adds fire to the list of circumstances for which the gain on the sale or exchange of livestock may be deferred, thus allowing farmers to defer such gains for up to four years (depending on the type of livestock and whether the sale is attributable to a federally-declared disaster). The bill also allows individuals to exclude from gross income payments received from federal, state, or local government agencies or Xcel Energy (or any subsidiary, insurer, or agent of Xcel Energy) as compensation for unreimbursed losses, damages, and certain expenses attributable to the Smokehouse Creek, 687 Reamer, and Roughneck Fires (Hutchinson County, Texas, February and March 2024); Windy Deuce Fire (Moore County, Texas, February 2024); and Grape Vine Creek Fire (Gray County, Texas, February 2024).

Health Over Wealth Act

United States · United States Congress · 25 July 2024

Health Over Wealth Act This bill establishes a series of restrictions and requirements regarding for-profit corporations that own health care entities. Specifically, the bill requires for-profit corporations that are controlled by private equity funds to obtain a license from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) before purchasing or investing in a health care entity. Additionally, for-profit corporations that own or are affiliated with health care entities must report certain ownership and financial information to HHS, such as the corporation's debts, assets, and political spending. The bill establishes civil penalties for violations. HHS must require for-profit corporations that are controlled by private equity funds to take certain actions to mitigate the risk of health care disruptions (e.g., escrow accounts to cover closures). In addition, as a condition of Medicare participation, hospitals must notify HHS about expected closures or discontinuations of services at least 90 days in advance. The bill also prohibits transactions between for-profit corporations or their affiliated health care entities and real estate investment trusts (REITs) if the transaction would weaken the health care entity's financial status; HHS may collect civil penalties and bring civil actions for violations. The bill additionally excludes rent from health care entities from factoring into whether a corporation may be considered a REIT for tax purposes. Finally, the bill prohibits investment companies from stripping assets from health care entities, and it requires bankruptcy courts to give substantial weight to how a bankruptcy plan involving health care entities would preserve health care quality and access.
