Summary

Political Tax Credit Reform Act of 1983 - Amends the Internal Revenue Code to repeal the income tax credit for contributions made to candidates for President, candidates for State and local offices, political action committees, and newsletter funds. Allows an income tax credit for one-half of the amount contributed to a political party and the full amount contributed to a congressional candidate. Amends the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 to require any candidate or committee receiving contributions eligible for such tax credit to include in its required report the number and aggregate amount of all eligible contributions.
