House Tax Bill Calls for $30,000 SALT, Omits Millionaire Tax
- On May 13, 2025, House Republicans introduced a major tax relief package in President Trump's key legislative effort, titled THE ONE, BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL.
- The bill proposes extending the tax relief measures introduced in 2017, increasing state and local tax deductions and child tax credits, with funding partially derived from reductions in Medicaid, nutritional assistance programs, and renewable energy initiatives.
- The proposal introduces additional tax relief targeting workers who earn tips, individuals eligible for overtime compensation, Social Security recipients, and borrowers with auto loans, while also raising the estate tax threshold from $14 million to $15 million.
- The proposed tax cuts are expected to lower government revenue by approximately $4.9 trillion over ten years, while the associated Medicaid reductions, which include new work and reporting requirements, could result in 8.6 million fewer people receiving coverage.
- The package triggers political debate as some GOP lawmakers reject SALT increases as insufficient and others warn cutting health care for tax breaks risks coverage losses and higher deficits.
