Bill overview
This bill, the Charity 2022 Act, allows taxpayers who don't itemize deductions to deduct a portion of their charitable contributions directly from their gross income. Specifically, it allows for an ‘above-the-line’ deduction, meaning it can be subtracted before calculating adjusted gross income. The deduction is capped at one-third of the taxpayer’s standard deduction for the year. This provision was enacted to provide financial relief during the COVID-19 pandemic.
