S. 2820 · 115th Congress
Repeal the Trump Tax Hike on Victims of Sexual Harassment Act of 2018
Key: what the circles and colors mean
Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:
Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.
Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.
Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 115th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

Repeal the Trump Tax Hike on Victims of Sexual Harassment Act of 2018
This bill amends the Internal Revenue Code to modify a provision that prohibits a tax deduction for: (1) a settlement or payment related to sexual harassment or sexual abuse if such settlement or payment is subject to a nondisclosure agreement, or (2) attorney's fees related to such a settlement or payment.
The bill specifies that the limitation on the deductibility of attorney's fees applies only to the taxpayer who is prohibited from deducting the cost of the payment or settlement and not the taxpayer who is receiving the payment or settlement.
