"Financial independence shouldn’t be out of reach for individuals with disabilities,” Congresswoman Dingell said. “By reintroducing the ABLE MATCH Act, we are taking a crucial step toward economic security by matching the hard-earned savings of ABLE account beneficiaries through a refundable tax credit." The legislation would establish a federal matching contribution for eligible low- and moderate-income individuals who save in ABLE accounts, allowing beneficiaries to receive up to a 100 percent federal match on the first $2,000 they contribute annually, subject to income limits. The federal matching funds would be deposited directly into the beneficiary's ABLE account, helping individuals save for disability-related expenses without jeopardizing eligibility for critical benefits. | 1 | 2026-08-01T07:27:26Z | 2026-08-01T07:28:22Z |
