Show full summary
- Manufacturers: Taxpayers with at least 85% of their qualified business income from a qualified domestic manufacturing trade or business could use a 30% QBI deduction rate instead of 20% and a wage-limit factor of 100% instead of 50%.
- Qualification rules: A "qualified domestic manufacturing trade or business" must manufacture tangible property and have at least 20% of its cost of goods sold attributable to U.S. labor and overhead. The Secretary of the Treasury would write regulations to apply these tests.
- Tax calculation and timing: The bill would change how taxable income is computed for the deduction by excluding section 68 limits and certain other deductions when determining the 199A benefit. The rules would apply to tax years beginning after Dec 31, 2025.

Bigger pass-through tax break for manufacturers
If enacted, passthrough owners of manufacturing businesses would be able to claim a larger section 199A deduction. The bill would raise the deduction base from 20% to 30% and raise the wage-based cap from 50% to 100%. To qualify you would need at least 85% of your qualified business income to come from domestic manufacturing and at least 20% of the cost of goods sold tied to those sales to be U.S. labor and overhead. The Treasury would write rules to measure the 20% domestic cost test. Taxable income used to figure the 199A deduction would ignore section 68, ignore the 199A deduction itself, and (if you itemize) ignore charitable deductions under section 170. These rules would apply to tax years starting after December 31, 2025.
