Rep. Goldman Introduces the Don't Tax the American Dream Act ... legislation that would eliminate federal capital gains taxes on the sale of primary residences.
As a member of Congress, Craig Goldman will work to eliminate federal capital gains taxes on the sale of primary residences.
Occurrences
Evidence
IRS Publication 523 still says qualifying homeowners may exclude up to $250,000 of gain, or $500,000 for joint filers, when selling a main home; gains above that can still be taxable.
Goldman's official House homepage shows recent June 2026 news on a Medicaid bill, an Abraham Accords bill, and a data-privacy statement; no home-sale capital-gains action appears in the visible latest-news items.
Assessments
Current federal law still taxes some gains on primary-residence sales, so the promised outcome has not been achieved. The available evidence does not show that Goldman has materially advanced legislation or executive action to eliminate the tax, so this is better treated as unresolved rather than delivered or failed after a serious attempt.
