Summary: H.R.8558 — 117th Congress (2021-2022)
Introduced in House (07/28/2022)
Billionaire Minimum Income Tax Act
This bill imposes a minimum tax on individual taxpayers whose net worth for the taxable year exceeds $100 million. The tax is equal to 20% of the sum of a taxpayer's taxable income, plus net unrealized gains for the taxable year. The tax may not exceed 40% of the amount by which the taxpayer's net worth exceeds $100 million.
Aussi who is not sure how unrealized gains on non liquid assets such as housing and private businesses would be evaluated.
