From what I’ve seen it doesn’t change the capital gains tax treatment. However if the tax brackets remain as proposed there will be a significant portion of the population that will pay more on long term capital gains at 15% as opposed to short term which is taxed as ordinary income under the new tax bracket at 12%. Interesting to see how this plays out.

Doesn't change the rate from what I gather. There is some language that appears to change to brackets of capital gains tax and how much of your capital gains is subject to taxation.

There is currently a 0% cap gains rate for those in the 10 and 15 brackets. Something similar with happen.
