Eliminating Federal Tax Subsidies for Stadiums Act of 2017 2017-06-12 Introduced in Senate Eliminating Federal Tax Subsidies for Stadiums Act of 2017

This bill amends the Internal Revenue Code, with respect to the tax exemption requirements for state and local bonds, to specify that bonds issued to finance professional sports stadiums meet the private security or payment test. (A state or local bond that satisfies both the private business use test and the private security or payment test is considered a private activity bond that is taxable unless it is used for certain qualified private activities.)
