Committee Chairs Reach Agreement on IRA Charitable Rollver and Tax Extenders
Senate Finance Committee Chair Max Baucus (D-MT) and House Ways and Means Committee Chair Sander Levin (D-MI) announced that they have reached an agreement on continuing the IRA Charitable Rollover and many other tax saving extensions.
Both the House and Senate previously passed bills to extend these provisions, but since there were different tax offsets in the House and Senate bills, prolonged discussions were necessary to come up with mutually acceptable tax increases.
The House plans to vote on the bill the week of May 24. As for the Senate, Baucus has indicated that he believes that he will get the 60 votes necessary to pass the bill.
