Passed House

Summary

This resolution supports the Working Families Tax Cuts and their aim to deliver broad, targeted tax relief for lower- and middle-income households. It highlights large refunds, measures that prevent big tax increases for most families, and specific changes like no tax on tips and overtime, a bigger child credit, and new deductions.

Show full summary
  • Families: The policy says families of four earning under $73,000 will generally face zero federal income tax liability and the child tax credit maximum rises to $2,200 per child while being protected from inflation.
  • Low-income and middle-income households: The cuts deliver a 15 percent tax cut for the bottom 40 percent and the largest percentage gains to the bottom 20 percent. For 2025 the law is credited with about $222 billion in refunds and the average 2026 tax cut is $3,750.
  • Tipped and overtime workers: The law enacts no tax on tips, giving about $32 billion in relief, and no tax on overtime, a $90 billion benefit.
  • Seniors and borrowers: Seniors can claim up to $6,000 per year in a new deduction and a new deduction covers interest on auto loans for new American-made vehicles.
  • Parents, adopters, and savers: The adoption tax credit is expanded so all adopting families can use it up to $17,280, 529 accounts can pay for trade school and K–12 expenses, and the law enables a down payment of over $15 billion into tax-advantaged accounts for children.
  • Health and savings access: More than 10 million people gain broader access to health savings accounts that can pair with direct primary care and telehealth.
