Not Authority

This is a news reference. It is not citable as authority and must not be quoted to a client as the basis for a position.

Borrowing the posture of IRC §6110(k)(3): written determinations may not be used or cited as precedent. The same applies here — these scout results signal that something may have changed and warrant a primary-source research pass against the Decisis corpus before any client-facing advice.

Scout Summary

A bipartisan bill in the House would amend §1014 to clarify that assets held in a grantor trust at the grantor's death receive a §1014 basis adjustment, codifying the position previously rejected in Rev. Rul. 2023-2. Tax-writers from both parties signaled support.
