Fitzgerald议员提出法案,取消对房屋销售的资本收益税,更新过时的排除限制。 Congressman Fitzgerald introduces bill to eliminate capital gains taxes on home sales, updating outdated exclusion limits.

2026年1月16日,国会议员Scott Fitzgerald(R-WI)提出《中等家庭免税法》, 提议取消出售初级住宅的资本收益税。 On January 16, 2026, Congressman Scott Fitzgerald (R-WI) introduced the Middle Class Home Tax Elimination Act, proposing to eliminate capital gains taxes on the sale of primary residences. 该法案旨在使过时的1997年排除限额现代化,单身者为250 000美元,已婚夫妇为500 000美元,这些限额跟不上通货膨胀或房价的上涨。 The bill aims to modernize outdated 1997 exclusion limits of $250,000 for singles and $500,000 for married couples, which have not kept pace with inflation or rising home prices. Fitzgerald认为,改变会鼓励老屋主裁员,增加住房供应,支持中产阶级稳定。 Fitzgerald argues the change would encourage older homeowners to downsize, increase housing supply, and support middle-class stability. 该提案与德克萨斯州共和党共和党人克雷格·戈德曼提出的类似立法相一致,后者还试图取消对在家中生活至少两年的人的房屋销售征收的资本收益税。 The proposal aligns with similar legislation introduced by Texas Republican Craig Goldman, who also seeks to eliminate capital gains taxes on home sales for those who have lived in their homes for at least two years. 这两项法案都旨在解决住房短缺问题和减轻房主的税收负担,尽管截至1月16日,国会网站尚未提供Fitzgerald法案的全文。 Both bills aim to address housing shortages and reduce tax burdens on homeowners, though the full text of Fitzgerald’s bill was not yet available on the congressional website as of January 16.
