S. 5125 · 117th Congress

Family Attribution Modernization Act

Key: what the circles and colors mean

Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:

IntroducedPassed one chamberPassed both chambersBecame law (gold)Resolution agreed to (full, dark)Failed or vetoed (gray)

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 117th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

Family Attribution Modernization Act

This bill modifies family attribution rules for purposes of tax-exempt pension and profit sharing plans (e.g., 401k retirement plans) to provide that (1) community property laws shall be disregarded for purposes of determining ownership under attribution rules, and (2) attribution is eliminated for spouses and minor children under certain circumstances. The family attribution rule treats an individual taxpayer as owning property interests (e.g., stock) that are owned, directly or indirectly, by the individual's spouse, children, grandchildren, and parents.
