HONOR Act

This bill, the HONOR Act (S 327), denies U.S. taxpayers a foreign tax credit for taxes paid to the Russian Federation during a specific period. It amends the tax code to block the credit for Russian taxes paid from 30 days after the bill's enactment until normal U.S. trade relations with Russia resume. The key provision directly affects U.S. individuals and businesses that pay taxes to Russia, preventing them from reducing their U.S. tax liability with those Russian payments. The rule takes effect 30 days after enactment, with a 90-day delay for the deduction limitation. The bill explicitly states it applies without regard to U.S. trade treaties with Russia.
