Posts - Bill - HR 409 Supporting Transit Commutes Act
house 01/15/2025 - 119th Congress
We're proposing legislation to amend the Internal Revenue Code to allow employers to deduct certain transportation fringe benefits. Our goal is to encourage employers to support their employees' commuting options by providing tax incentives for transportation benefits, ultimately improving employee satisfaction and reducing overall commuting costs.
