## Summary

**Allows tax-free charitable rollovers from employer-sponsored retirement plans.** This bill would expand the existing charitable distribution exclusion beyond IRAs to include certain employer plans and set an explicit age threshold for eligible donors. - Families and older donors: People aged 70½ or older would be able to make direct, tax-excluded donations from eligible employer plans to qualified charities, subject to an "applicable amount" cap defined in the bill. - Retirement savers and plan types: The exclusion would cover SEP and SIMPLE plans and would apply the new rules to 403(b) annuity contracts and 457(b) eligible deferred compensation plans, making more retirement assets usable for charitable giving. - Charities and plan sponsors: Transfers must be made directly by the plan to qualifying public charities and would exclude supporting organizations and certain donor-advised funds. The bill would take effect for distributions in taxable years beginning after enactment.
