## Summary

**Would expand tax deductibility for transfers to certain nonprofit cemetery entities.** It would add new estate and gift deduction rules to the Internal Revenue Code and amend private foundation payout and taxable-expenditure rules that touch cemetery companies. - Estates and heirs: Estates would be allowed an estate tax deduction under section 2055(a) for transfers to cemetery companies or cemetery corporations that operate as nonprofits and do not let net earnings inure to private individuals. - Donors and cemetery entities: Gifts by residents and nonresidents would be deductible under sections 2522(a) and 2522(b) when paid to qualifying cemetery companies or cemetery corporations. The gift deduction changes would apply to taxable years beginning after enactment. - Private foundations: The bill would treat distributions to these cemetery companies as part of the failure-to-distribute rule and list them as examples of prohibited taxable expenditures. Foundations could face taxes or restrictions for distributions or expenditures to qualifying cemetery companies made after enactment.
