house 01/03/2025 - 119th Congress
We introduced the High Rise Fire Sprinkler Incentive Act of 2025 to encourage the installation of safer automatic fire sprinkler systems in older high-rise buildings by offering a quicker tax depreciation over 15 years. This change aims to enhance public safety and incentivize building owners to invest in critical fire protection upgrades.
