List of Temporary Tax Provisions:
Extenders Expiring in 2005

Summary
Several temporary tax provisions will expire this year. Often referred to as
extenders, these provisions were originally enacted with an expiration date that may
well be extended. Several have been extended numerous times in the past, sometimes
after their expiration date. The extenders provide special tax treatment for certain types
of activities and investment and benefit both individuals and corporations. They occur
in a variety of policy areas including wage credits to support employment of certain
populations; excise taxes on fuel, tires, and other commodities; energy production
incentives; deductions for charitable contributions; special depreciation allowances; and
many others.
A total of 35 temporary tax provisions are expiring in 2005, of which 11 are tax
credits, nine are tax deductions, seven are excise taxes, and eight are other temporary
provisions. All of the provisions, unless otherwise noted, expire on December 31,
2005.
This list will be updated as warranted by legislative changes.
