To provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14, Sec. 70431

The section rewrites section 1202(b)(1)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to point to the applicable dollar limit and adds a new paragraph (4) setting that limit at $10,000,000 for stock acquired on or before the applicable date and $15,000,000 for stock acquired after it, in each case reduced by eligible gain already taken into account for prior years from that corporation's stock. From a taxable year beginning after 2026 the $15,000,000 rises with a cost of living adjustment measured from calendar year 2025, rounded to the nearest $10,000, and once the limit is exceeded in a year the limit for later years is zero.

What the document actually says

“if such stock was acquired by the taxpayer after the applicable date, $15,000,000, reduced by the sum of--”

That sentence, in plain words

For stock bought after the applicable date the cap is $15 million. It is cut by the sums listed below.

What this is about

For older stock the cap stays at $10 million. Gain already claimed cuts the cap. Once the cap is passed, later years get nothing.
