Bill introduced in Congress — not yet passed by either chamber, and not law.

Digital Asset PARITY Act

Key claim: The House has introduced the Digital Asset PARITY Act (H.R. 8899) and referred it to the Ways and Means Committee.

Abstract

(HR8899 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-05-19): Referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means.

Why this matters

The Digital Asset PARITY Act represents an early-stage congressional effort to align the tax treatment of digital assets with other asset classes, a recurring parity question in federal tax policy. Referral to Ways and Means places it in the committee of jurisdiction for IRC changes, but introduction alone carries no legal effect. Tracking its progression indicates whether digital-asset tax parity gains traction this Congress.
