Tax Deduction Changes: Abortion Costs Excluded from Medical Expenses.

This bill amends tax law to prevent citizens from deducting abortion costs as medical expenses on their federal income tax returns. This change could increase the taxable income and overall tax burden for individuals incurring these costs. Exceptions are made for abortions necessary to save the woman's life or those resulting from rape or incest.
Key points
Costs paid for an abortion will generally no longer be counted toward the federal medical expense deduction.
The deduction remains available only if the abortion is necessary to save the woman's life or if the pregnancy resulted from rape or incest.
