Posts - Bill - HR 262 Disaster Reforestation Act
house 01/09/2025 - 119th Congress
We're proposing the Disaster Reforestation Act to amend the Internal Revenue Code, providing a special tax rule for timber owners who experience casualty losses, like fires or theft. This legislation aims to ensure fair valuation of uncut timber losses and encourages reforestation by requiring replanting efforts within five years.
