Dossier Legislative introduced 25-jun-2026
Bill introduced in Congress — not yet passed by either chamber, and not law.

To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to allow a deduction for amounts contributed to home savings accounts, and for other purposes.

Key claim: HR9480 proposes amending the Internal Revenue Code to allow taxpayers a tax deduction for contributions made to designated home savings accounts.

Abstract

(HR9480 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-06-25): Referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means.

Why this matters

A dedicated home savings account deduction would add a new category of tax-advantaged personal savings under the Internal Revenue Code, targeted at homeownership rather than retirement, health, or education. Taxpayers saving for a home would pay less federal income tax; the federal fisc would absorb the revenue loss. The proposal fits a broader pattern of using tax expenditures rather than direct spending to advance housing policy goals.
