Summary
Amends the Internal Revenue Code to add certain professional sports franchises — those in a sport designated for females that allow participation by athletes the bill terms "biological males" — and any items acquired in connection with them to the list of intangible property excluded from the section 197 amortization deduction, meaning their cost could not be written off over time for tax purposes.
