Opportunity Zones Improvement, Transparency, and Extension Act
Bill: H.R.7467 | Sponsor: Rep. Kind, Ron (D-WI)
Policy area: Taxation

Summary:
Opportunity Zones Improvement, Transparency, and Extension Act
This bill revises rules and reinstates reporting requirements relating to qualified opportunity zones (economically distressed communities where new investments, under specified conditions, may be eligible for preferential tax treatment).
Specifically, the bill terminates the designation of zones that are disqualified due to median family income exceeding 130% of national median family income and permits states to identify and expand terminations of such zones.
The bill also reinstates reporting requirements for qualified opportunity zones and imposes penalties for noncompliance with such requirements, extends the opportunity zones temporary deferral period for qualifying capital gain through 2028, and establishes a State and Community Dynamism Fund to support public and private investment in qualified opportunity zones.

To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to modify the rules relating 
        to qualified opportunity zones, and for other purposes.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Opportunity Zones Improvement, 
Transparency, and Extension Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The 8,764 population census tracts designated as 
        qualified opportunity zones under section 1400Z-1 of the 
        Internal Revenue Code of 1986 span across all 50 States, the 
        District of Columbia, and 5 Territories and overwhelmingly 
        represent communities that have been economically left behind 
        as the American economy has surged forward.
            (2) The average poverty rate of qualified opportunity zone 
        residents is 26.4 percent.
            (3) Fifty-four percent of the country's pockets of 
        concentrated persistent poverty--meaning census tracts in which 
        at least 40 percent of the population has lived in poverty 
        since at least 1980--are qualified opportunity zones.
            (4) More adults in qualified opportunity zones lack a high 
        school diploma than have a four-year college degree.
            (5) The Investing in Opportunity Act, which originally 
        proposed opportunity zones, originally incorporated reporting 
        requirements to evaluate the impact the incentive will have on 
        designated communities and it is critical that Congress act to 
        reinstate reporting requirements as soon as possible.

              QUALIFIED OPPORTUNITY ZONES.

    Section 1400Z-1 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 is amended by 
adding at the end the following new subsection:
    ``(g) Disqualification of Certain Population Census Tracts.--
