Posts - Bill - HR 2292 Economic Opportunity for Distressed Communities Act
house 03/24/2025 - 119th Congress
We're introducing a bill to encourage investment in revitalizing brownfield and superfund sites by offering special tax rules for capital gains invested in these areas. By doing this, we aim to stimulate economic growth and create opportunities in distressed communities, all while addressing environmental challenges.
