Tax deductions and Trump’s ‘big beautiful’ bill: Here’s who benefits

Tax deductions and Trump’s ‘big beautiful’ bill: Here’s who benefits
SHARE

Senate Republicans recently passed a significant legislative package focused on tax cuts, a key initiative supported by President Trump. The bill, known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, boasts over $4 trillion in net tax cuts, as reported by the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget.

One of the main components of this bill is the introduction of several new tax deductions. These deductions include the ability for households to deduct up to $10,000 of annual interest on new car loans, up to $25,000 of tips each year, up to $12,500 of annual overtime pay (or $25,000 for married couples filing jointly), and a senior “bonus” deduction allowing Americans aged 65 and over to deduct up to $6,000 from their taxable income. These deductions are set to be available from 2025 through 2028, with certain limitations and income restrictions in place.

However, experts have pointed out that tax deductions may not benefit lower-income earners as much as higher-income households. This is due to the fact that deductions reduce taxable income, meaning that households need some taxable income to benefit from them. Low earners already receive a significant benefit from the standard deduction, which is set to increase under the proposed bill.

Additionally, the value of tax deductions depends on a household’s tax bracket. Higher-income households typically fall into higher tax brackets, making deductions more valuable to them. For example, a household in the 22% tax bracket would receive a larger tax benefit from a deduction than a household in the 10% bracket.

Furthermore, some deductions may have limitations that prevent households from maximizing their benefits. For instance, households would need a substantial car loan to generate the maximum deduction for car loan interest. Only about 1% of new auto loans meet this criteria, according to data from Cox Automotive.

In contrast to tax deductions, tax credits are another mechanism to reduce tax liability. A tax credit directly reduces tax owed, dollar-for-dollar, regardless of the taxpayer’s income bracket. Credits can be refundable or nonrefundable, with refundable credits being able to reduce tax liability below zero, resulting in a tax refund.

The Senate legislation also includes provisions to increase the child tax credit to $2,200 starting in 2025, with adjustments for inflation in subsequent years. This credit is partially refundable, allowing low earners to receive a tax refund. However, there are concerns that many children currently do not receive the full benefit of the child tax credit due to their families’ low income levels.

Overall, while tax deductions may provide some relief for certain households, tax credits are seen as a more effective way to target benefits towards low and middle-income earners. The debate over the impact of these tax measures continues as the bill moves to the House for further consideration.
