Plain-English Summary

The LEAP Act would change how the federal government taxes certain types of income or business activities, though the specific tax changes would depend on the bill's detailed provisions. The proposal has been sent to two congressional committees—Ways and Means and Oversight and Government Reform—to review which parts fall under each committee's authority before moving forward. Depending on what the bill actually contains, it could affect how individuals, businesses, or both pay federal taxes.
