Relates to small business savings accounts
This bill creates tax-advantaged "small business savings accounts" for eligible small businesses. It allows businesses with 25 or fewer full-time employees and under $250,000 annual net income to deduct up to 10% of their prior year's gross profits as contributions. Qualified distributions during economic hardship (defined by GDP declines or disaster declarations) are tax-free if reinvested for job retention/creation, with an 8-year limit on qualifying uses. Non-qualified distributions are taxable, and accounts pledged as loan security lose tax benefits. The law takes effect for tax years beginning after 2025.
