Abstract
(HR9398 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-06-23): Referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means.
Why this matters
Historic preservation and land conservation tax provisions — particularly conservation easement deductions — have been a high-audit-risk area with recurring calls for statutory clarification. A bill titled ‘Certainty Act’ signals legislative interest in stabilizing rules for donors and property owners, though at the referral stage no specific winners or losers can yet be identified. Tracking this fills a previously uncovered sub-topic in the Taxation area.
