The purpose of this legislation, known as the Accelerate Long-term Investment Growth Now Act or the ALIGN Act, is to encourage businesses to invest in qualified property by allowing them to deduct the full cost of these investments from their taxes at the time they make the investment. This change aims to stimulate economic growth by making it easier for businesses to invest in new equipment, facilities, and other assets. Key provisions of the Act include a permanent allowance for full expensing of qualified property.
