The bill, which was a <strong data-start=\"303\" data-end=\"329\">Trump campaign promise<\/strong>, aims to exempt tips from federal income taxation, helping millions of American workers who rely heavily on gratuities.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"451\" data-end=\"817\">The bill allows <strong data-start=\"467\" data-end=\"486\">full deductions<\/strong> for tips\u2014including cash, card payments, and shared tips\u2014on federal tax filings. Cruz highlighted its significance for <strong data-start=\"605\" data-end=\"628\">blue-collar workers<\/strong> living paycheck-to-paycheck and emphasized the bipartisan support it has received. He now urges the House of Representatives to pass the bill so it can be signed into law by the president.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"819\" data-end=\"1197\">This legislation is part of a broader <strong data-start=\"857\" data-end=\"882\">Republican tax reform<\/strong> initiative aimed at reducing burdens on working-class Americans. Cruz emphasized that \u201cguardrails\u201d have been included to ensure only <strong data-start=\"1016\" data-end=\"1045\">legitimate tipped workers<\/strong> benefit from the new tax exemption. He has been a consistent advocate for tax relief, including his role in the 2017 tax cuts and the USMCA trade deal.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1199\" data-end=\"1595\">The <strong data-start=\"1203\" data-end=\"1218\">Senate bill<\/strong> is largely similar to the House version passed earlier this year. However, it introduces a few key differences. The <strong data-start=\"1335\" data-end=\"1350\">Senate plan<\/strong> caps the tax deduction at <strong data-start=\"1377\" data-end=\"1397\">$25,000 per year<\/strong>, while the House version leaves it uncapped. Additionally, the Senate includes <strong data-start=\"1477\" data-end=\"1498\">income phase-outs<\/strong>, reducing the deduction\u2019s value above $150,000 for individuals and $300,000 for married couples.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1597\" data-end=\"1860\">Both versions of the bill restrict the benefit to jobs that <strong data-start=\"1657\" data-end=\"1682\">regularly earned tips<\/strong> before the end of 2024. The legislation directs the <strong data-start=\"1735\" data-end=\"1757\">Treasury Secretary<\/strong> to issue a list of qualifying occupations within 90 days of passage, to ensure clarity and compliance.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1862\" data-end=\"2090\">The measure has received <strong data-start=\"1887\" data-end=\"1908\">bipartisan praise<\/strong>, including support from top Democrats like <strong data-start=\"1952\" data-end=\"1978\">Senators Chuck Schumer<\/strong> and <strong data-start=\"1983\" data-end=\"1999\">Jackie Rosen<\/strong>, signaling strong momentum as it moves to the <strong data-start=\"2046\" data-end=\"2070\">GOP-controlled House<\/strong> for final approval.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz announced the unanimous Senate passage (100-0) of his \u201cNo Tax on Tips Act,\u201d delivering a major legislative win for former President Donald&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":11317,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11316","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.4 -
