Small Business Investment: Tax Breaks for Investors

Legislative Progress
Tax changes like this often struggle to pass on their own and usually need to be part of a much bigger budget deal to move forward.
Key Points
- This bill aims to encourage more people to put money into small companies by offering bigger tax breaks. It changes the rules so investors can keep more of their profits when they sell their shares in a small business.
- Right now, investors often have to wait five years to get a tax break on their gains. This plan would start the tax breaks after only three years, giving a 50 percent discount then and increasing it to a 100 percent discount after five years.
- The plan also helps people who start by lending money to a company. If that loan later turns into stock, the time they spent as a lender will count toward the three year waiting period for the tax break.
- More types of small businesses would be included under these rules. By adding S corporations to the list, the bill makes it easier for different kinds of local businesses to find people willing to invest in them.
