Trump's "big, beautiful bill" stops short of "no tax on tips" promise
The fine print in President Trump's recently signed"big, beautiful bill" could restrict savings for some tipped workers. Why it matters: Trump made "no taxes on tips" a centerpiece of his presidential campaign — and while a provision in the new law honors that idea on the surface, it doesn't eliminate all taxes. Here's what to know: How does the "big, beautiful bill" impact tipped workers? State of play: A qualifying worker's first $25,000 in tips are exempt from income taxes. Tipped workers will still pay 7.65% in payroll taxes that fund Social Security and Medicare. The law shouts out food service and cosmetics industry workers specifically, stressing that the tax exemption will apply "only to certain lines of business." By the numbers: The tax deduction would decrease once a worker's income hits $150,000 — decreasing further at $300,000. Tipped workers filing a joint return with spouses would also see less of a deduction. The law also requires workers to provide their Social Security numbers — as well as any spouses — making undocumented workers ineligible for the tax break. Undocumented immigrants paid $96.7 billion in federal, state, and local taxes in 2022, per the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy (ITEP). When does the tax provision go into effect? The law will apply to the current tax year, including tips already accrued. How many tipped workers are there? About four million people in the U.S. earned tips in 2023, according to Yale University's Budget Lab. That's 2.5% of all workers. Two-thirds of restaurant workers who work for tips earn so little that they don't pay federal income taxes, per a 2024 report parsing data from the Census Bureau's American Community Survey. Workers are currently taxed on tips, which puts an added financial strain on a demographic that tends to be lower income. The median weekly wage for tipped occupations in 2023 was $538, versus $1,000 for non-tipped workers, per the Budget Lab. What did Trump promise tipped workers on the campaign trail? "No tax on tips" began as a promise Trump made during a 2024 campaign stop in Nevada. It has since become a top talking point for Republicans as they've promoted their megabill. The intrigue: "No tax on tips" has emerged as a rare bipartisan, populist policy. Former Vice President Kamala Harris adopted the promise as a part of her own presidential campaign two months after Trump did. In May, the Senate passed a separate "No Tax on Tips Act" in a surprise move, which no lawmakers — Republican or Democrat — objected to. Will no taxes on tips help tipped workers?

5 things to know about the US school choice law in the 'One, Big, Beautiful Bill'
US launches first nationwide private school choice programme under new education law. (AI Image) The "One, Big, Beautiful Bill" signed into law by US President Donald Trump on July 4 has introduced a significant new national education policy. The law includes a federally funded private school choice provision, making it the first of its kind to be implemented at the federal level in the United States. As reported by K12Dive, the provision forms part of a larger tax and spending package and has been framed by supporters as a major advancement in parental choice for K–12 education. It offers families access to financial resources for a wide range of education-related expenses. However, the structure and implementation of the programme carry key details that stakeholders will need to understand ahead of its rollout. A nationwide school choice programme backed by federal funds The law establishes the first nationwide, federally funded private school choice initiative in the US. Unlike previous programmes limited to state or local levels, this measure allows eligible families across the country to access scholarships for private and home education. According to K12Dive, it covers both secular and religious schools, as well as public school expenses such as tutoring and transport. Parents may use the funds for tuition, educational therapies, technology, and even homeschooling costs. However, participation depends on whether individual states choose to opt in to the federal programme, and as K12Dive noted, it is not yet clear which agencies or leaders will make that determination. Eligibility linked to local income levels Families whose household income does not exceed 300% of the median gross income for their locality will qualify for the programme. For example, as reported by K12Dive, students in Memphis in families earning up to $364,400 would be eligible, based on a local median income of $91,100. The law entrusts scholarship-granting organisations, which must be independent and unaffiliated with any school, to assess eligibility and distribute scholarships. Parents cannot directly use tax credits to fund their child's education expenses. A tax credit model with significant fiscal implications The school choice programme is structured around a unique federal tax incentive. Taxpayers who contribute up to $1,700 annually to a qualified scholarship-granting organisation will receive a 100% federal income tax credit. As highlighted by K12Dive, this dollar-for-dollar tax benefit is unlike any other charitable giving structure currently available under federal law. The Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy (ITEP), cited by K12Dive, estimated that if 43% of taxpayers—approximately 59 million people—participate, the cost to the federal government could reach $101 billion per year. The law does not impose a cap on total programme expenditure, despite earlier legislative proposals limiting it to $4 billion or $5 billion annually. Programme implementation set for 2027 The law specifies that the tax credit will begin for taxable years ending after December 31, 2026. This means the full rollout is expected in 2027. Between now and then, the US Department of Education must establish regulations for the programme's operation, including reporting, enforcement, and state certification of scholarship-granting organisations. As per K12Dive, no implementation timeline has yet been released by the Department. Key questions remain regarding how this programme will integrate with the existing 35 state-level private school choice schemes serving around 1.3 million students, as noted by EdChoice. Mixed reactions and ongoing preparations While some groups have welcomed the bill, others have expressed concern. Anthony J. de Nicola, chairman of the Invest in Education Coalition, stated that the law represents "a huge victory for American families," as quoted by K12Dive. On the other hand, EdTrust, an education equity group, criticised the measure as an "extremely costly federal voucher programme" with limited oversight, and referred to the legislation as the "Great American Heist," according to K12Dive. The law's long-term impact will depend on decisions made at the state level and on federal regulations yet to be finalised. As K12Dive reported, both school choice advocates and public school supporters are expected to remain active in shaping the future of this landmark programme. TOI Education is on WhatsApp now.
