A BILL
To provide that Federal contracts and certain Federal sub-

qualified profit-sharing plans.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘American Profit Shar-
ing Act’’.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
The Congress finds that:
(1) Reducing income disparities will stimulate
and stabilize the national economy.
(2) The best solutions to prevailing income dis-
parities are structural changes in our income dis-
tribution system.
(3) It is important that American corporations
retain the flexibility to compete effectively in this
global economy.
(4) It is equally important that the well-being
of the American worker be protected in this chang-
ing economic environment.
(5) The most effective incomes policy approach
in such an environment is diversification of sources
and types of income for the American worker.
(6) Return to capital in terms of interest, divi-
dends, and capital gains have soared in recent years
and is the single most robust source of income
growth.
(7) A significant percentage of this increase in
the return to capital has been a direct result of pub-
lic policy and public investment.
(8) Our global competitors use profit sharing as
a significant part of their employee compensation
systems.
(9) In this country, profit sharing has been
shown to contribute to increased productivity and
profitability.
(10) It is appropriate that taxpayers participate
in capital expansions created and financed with tax
dollars.
SEC. 3. PROVISION OF FEDERAL CONTRACTS AND CERTAIN
FEDERAL SUBSIDIES ONLY TO BUSINESSES
WITH QUALIFIED PROFIT-SHARING PLANS.
(a) IN GENERAL.—Federal contracts and specified
Federal subsidies may be provided only to businesses

meets the requirements of section 401(a) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986.
