What this amendment would do

This amendment, which may be called the Bankruptcy Threshold Adjustment Act of 2026, aims to change the debt limits for specific types of bankruptcy filings.

  • Small Business Bankruptcy: It modifies the debt limit for a person engaged in commercial or business activities to an amount not more than $7,500,000 (excluding debts owed to one or more insiders or affiliates).

  • Consumer Bankruptcy: It modifies the debt limit for an individual with regular income (or an individual and their spouse, excluding commodity or stockbrokers) to debts that aggregate less than $2,750,000 to be a debtor under chapter 13.

These changes would apply to any case started on or after the date the Act is enacted.
