The House and Senate versions of tax reform legislation specifically intended to include towable RVs as motor vehicles, but the final version of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) simplified the definition of motor vehicles. As a result, the full tax exemption now only applies to RV motorhomes, putting the RV travel trailer industry at a disadvantage and forcing larger dealers to use different accounting rules for trailers and motorhomes. According to the RV Industry Association (RVIA), approximately 88 percent of RVs sold are travel trailers. The Travel Trailer and Camper Tax Parity Act would restore the full deductibility of inventory financing interest for all types of RVs, including motorhomes, travel trailers, and campers, as originally intended by Congress. Opposition to New Tax Information Reporting Proposal RVDA signed onto a letter with 100+ other national associations to express our strong opposition to the proposed new tax information reporting regime as described by the Department of Treasury, that would impact almost every American who has an account at a financial institution. The proposal will require providers of financial services to track and submit to the IRS information on the inflows and outflows of every account above a de minimis threshold of $600 during the year. Intended to help the IRS target wealthy tax dodgers, the unintended consequence is the overly broad proposal will directly impact almost every American and small business with an account at a financial institution. This proposal would create serious financial privacy concerns, increase tax preparation costs for individuals and small businesses, and create significant operational challenges for financial institutions. While recent proposals suggest that increasing the de minimis threshold to $10,000 is less objecti… HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,SENATE     0 0 2022-04-05T12:34:49-04:00

Simplifying Outdoor Access for Recreation (SOAR) Act (H.R. 3670). This important legislation is strongly supported by RVDA. The industry feels a sense of urgency behind moving this bill that will help ensure the continued growth of this vibrant sector while helping to manage overcrowding at some recreation locations, as well as guarantee relief for businesses and communities hard-hit by the COVID-19 pandemic and those struggling with the impacts of climate change. The SOAR Act is a pillar piece of bicameral and bipartisan recreation legislation, and strongly RVDA encourages its passage and timely consideration by the full House of Representatives.

The legislation would also enable 529 plan beneficiaries to use their funds to pay for examinations necessary to obtain and maintain recognized private professional certifications and other credentials. Now, only costs related to attending colleges, universities, vocational schools, registered apprenticeship programs, K-12 private tuition, or other post-secondary institutions are eligible 529 expenses. The REBUILD Skills Act would create a federally funded Career Rebuilding Scholarship Fund, administered by approved certification organizations and worker training programs, to distribute scholarships to eligible individuals who incur covered expenses to take certification exams or enroll in a training program. Funds would cover up to the lesser of 95% or $3,000 of a program. This bill would also create a federal directory of approved, legitimate training and certification programs that could benefit all American workers and not just individuals eligible for scholarships. Eligible individuals include: -Any workers displaced from their jobs due to the COVID-19 pandemic; -Military members who rolled out/are rolling out of service during the pandemic; and -Spouses of military members who rolled out/are rolling out of service.
