May 12, 2025, Fairfax, Va.—Americans for Limited Government Executive Director Robert Romano today issued the following statement urging passage of the House Ways and Means Committee’s proposal to extend the 2017 Trump tax cuts and expand them to include no taxes on tips, overtime and the enhanced deduction for seniors:
“In 2024, the American people reelected President Donald Trump and gave Republicans majorities in the House and Senate in part to eliminate taxes on tips, overtime and seniors — and the GOP House Ways and Committee has listened and is delivering vital tax relief to Americans who work for a living, are getting their start and are enjoying their retirements. These proposals were instrumental in helping Trump to win the swing states of Nevada, Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania. These are promises made, promises kept, and will be game changers for the U.S. economy that has been weakened by inflation, too much spending and too many regulations. The One Big, Beautiful Bill will guarantee that even if the worst should come to pass with a slowdown or recession, the conditions for a robust recovery will already be in place. There are high expectations these tax cuts will pass and now it is time for Congress to get to work and put the American people first.”
