Summary: Amends the Internal Revenue Code to increase the retirement savings deduction and the maximum individual retirement account contribution from $2,000 to $2,500. Raises income phase-out limits. Allows such a deduction for nonemployed spouses. Provides an inflation adjustment for retirement savings deductions. Excludes from gross income qualified distributions from certain retirement plans for first-time homebuyers and higher education expenses of the taxpayer, spouse, or child. Requires the repayment of such amounts with interest.
