H.R. 3091 — A bill to prevent the estate tax law from operating to encourage or to require the destruction of open lands and historic places, by amending the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 to provide that real property which is farmland, woodland, or open land and forms part of an estate may be valued, for estate tax purposes, at its value, as farmland, woodland, or open land (rather that at its fair market value), and to provide that real property which is listed on National Register of Historic Places may be valued, for estate tax purposes, at its value for its existing use, and to provide for the revocation of such lower evaluation and recapture of unpaid taxes with interest in appropriate circumstances, and to increase the estate tax exemption from $60,000 to $200,000. | PoliFocus
