          <text>&lt;p&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Bicycle Commuter Act of 2023 &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This bill reinstates and expands the tax exclusion for employer-provided fringe benefits for bicycle commuting. It allows employees a bicycle commuting benefit equal to 30% of parking fringe benefits. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The bill repeals the suspension period (2018-2025) applicable to such tax exclusion and revises definitions applicable to bicycle commuting benefits to make electric bicycles and certain scooters eligible for the tax exclusion.&lt;/p&gt;</text>
