Summary
Family Attribution Modernization Act
This bill modifies testing rules for tax-exempt pension and profit sharing plans (e.g., 401k retirement plans) to eliminate attribution under the the family attribution rules (1) for spouses with separate businesses who reside in community property states, and (2) between parents with separate businesses who have minor children.
