What this bill would do
This bill, titled the ``Abortion Is Not Health Care Act of 2025'', proposes an amendment to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. It seeks to change how medical expense deductions are calculated. Specifically, the bill states that any amounts paid for an abortion during a taxable year cannot be included when determining the deduction for medical expenses. These changes would apply to taxable years starting after the act is enacted.
