Referred to the Committee on Ways and Means, and in addition to the Committee on Education and Workforce, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
This bill focuses on workers who earn tips. It would let you subtract the amount of tips you reported to your employer from your taxable income, as a tax deduction. If your adjusted gross income is over $112,500, you cannot claim this deduction.
Only certain tips would count. They must come from someone who isn’t related to you and doesn’t own the business where you work, and they must be earned in jobs that commonly get tips, like cosmetology, hospitality, food and drink service, parking attendants, or custodial work. The bill also says it aims to end the separate federal minimum wage for tipped workers.
