I thought some might be interested in the latest on H.R. 651. Few
believe it will see much more than the light of day - if even that. But I
applaud CASE and others for helping promote initiatives such as this.

Hello everyone,
Late last week, U.S. Reps. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) and Chris Smith (R-NJ)
re-introduced the Charitable Giving Tax Deduction Act (H.R. 651
<https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/651>), a bill that
would allow non-itemizing taxpayers to deduct charitable gifts without
limitation. The bill is identical to legislation they introduced in the
last Congress.
In a press release
<https://chrissmith.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=401680>
announcing the bill, Rep. Smith stated, "Many Americans want to give
generously to charities, but they may not be able to afford to do so now
with the changes implemented in the 2018 tax law." Rep. Cuellar noted,
"This bipartisan bill not only encourages us to help our fellow neighbors,
but it also makes sure that taxpayers can receive their due deduction for
charitable giving if they choose not to itemize." And CASE President and
CEO Sue Cunningham noted that the bill encourages "all Americans to support
student scholarships, research, faculty and academic programs that help
educational institutions provide transformational learning opportunities."
CASE and our colleagues in the Charitable Giving Coalition support this
legislation. We will continue to keep you posted on this bill and other
bills that would expand the charitable deduction to non-itemizers.
Thanks,
Brian
