President-elect Donald Trump made news on the campaign trail last year when he proposed “no tax on tips.”
Now, that pledge is likely to become reality.
Sens. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Jacky Rosen, D-Nev., on Thursday introduced the No Tax on Tips Act along with Sens. Catherine Cortez Masto, D-Nev., Steve Daines, R-Mont., Pete Ricketts, R-Neb., and Rick Scott, R-Fla.
“American workers in many industries rely on tipped wages to make ends meet. Today, I’m introducing my bipartisan No Tax on Tips Act – legislation I authored to fulfill President Trump’s promise to end the wrongful practice of taxing voluntary tips,” Cruz said in a statement.
