Lugar, Boehner Introduce
Legislation To Fulfill
Farm Bill Promises
WASHINGTON, D.C.
U.S. Sen. Dick Lugar, chairman
of the Senate Agriculture, Nutri
tion and Forestry Committee,
and Rep. John Boehner (R-OH)
introduced legislation to in
crease farmers’ competitiveness
by opening foreign markets, pro
viding tax and regulatory relief,
and expanding risk manage
ment options for farmers.
“This bill is about improving
net farm income. It will provide
farmers the tools to increase
income and build on the existing
farm safety net. Farmers will get
tax relief from deductibility for
health insurance so they have
the same benefits as other work
ers capital gains and estate
tax relief and the ability to aver
age out income in high and low
years. The bill would also open
up foreign markets and reduce
regulatory burdens on farmers,”
Lugar said.
“Many of the provisions were
included in the tax bill that
passed Congress but was
vetoed by the President last
year. In fact, many of them were
voted on in the last week as part
of the estate tax and marriage
penalty tax bills,” Lugar said.
“These taxes cut into a farmer’s
bottom line. Lower taxes and in*
creased trade are essential to in
creasing farmers’ net income.”

duced the Rural America Pros
perity Act of 2000 to address the
needs of American farmers in
the areas of tax relief, trade, risk
management, and regulatory
reform. Senators Pat Roberts
(R-KS) and Rick Santorum (R
-PA) are cosponsors of the bill.
Highlights of the legislation
are:
• Health care insurance cost
deduction for self-employed.
Allows for the immediate full
deduction of health care insur
ance premiums for farmers and
the self-insured.
• Capital gains. Provides a
$500,000 exclusion ($250,000 for
a married couple filing sepa
rately) from capital gains taxes
on the sale of a farm.
• Income averaging. Ensures
that farmers are not disqualified
from using income averaging
due to the alternative minimum
tax (AMT) calculation.
• Farm, Fish and Ranch Risk
Management (FFARRM) ac
counts. Allows farmers to
deduct up to 20 percent of their
taxable net farm income and put
it aside in a tax-free account for
up to five years, allowing farm
ers to smooth out volatile
income streams and minimize
risks.
• Estate tax. Phases out the
estate and gift tax during a 10-
year period.
