What this bill would do
This bill, known as the ``DELIVER Act of 2025'', seeks to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. It specifically targets the standard charitable mileage rate for those delivering meals to certain groups. The goal is to increase the rate for delivering meals to elderly, disabled, frail, and at-risk individuals. Under this proposal, the rate would match the standard business mileage rate set by the IRS. The change would apply to miles driven on or after the date the Act is enacted.
