SEC. 102. QUALIFIED ABLE PROGRAMS.
(a) In General.--Subchapter F of chapter 1 is amended by inserting
after section 529 the following new section:
``SEC. 529A. <<NOTE: 26 USC 529A.>> QUALIFIED ABLE PROGRAMS.
``(a) General Rule.--A qualified ABLE program shall be exempt from

meeting the qualified disability expenses of the
designated beneficiary of the account,
``(B) which limits a designated beneficiary to 1

resident of such State or a resident of a contracting
State, and
[[Page 128 STAT. 4057]]
``(D) which meets the other requirements of this
section.
``(2) Cash contributions.--A program shall not be treated as
a qualified ABLE program unless it provides that no contribution
will be accepted--
``(A) unless it is in cash, or
``(B) except in the case of contributions under
subsection (c)(1)(C), if such contribution to an ABLE
account would result in aggregate contributions from all
contributors to the ABLE account for the taxable year
exceeding the amount in effect under section 2503(b) for
the calendar year in which the taxable year begins.
For <<NOTE: Applicability.>> purposes of this paragraph, rules
similar to the rules of section 408(d)(4) (determined without

not be treated as a qualified ABLE program if it allows any
interest in the program or any portion thereof to be used as
security for a loan.

not be treated as a qualified ABLE program unless it provides
adequate safeguards to prevent aggregate contributions on behalf
of a designated beneficiary in excess of the limit established

preceding sentence, aggregate contributions include
contributions under any prior qualified ABLE program of any
State or agency or instrumentality thereof.

benefit of the same designated beneficiary or an
eligible individual who is a family member of the
designated beneficiary.

such taxable year and a member of the family of
the former beneficiary.
