President-elect Donald Trump aims to eliminate federal taxes on tips for workers, particularly benefiting Gen Zers, waiters, and bartenders.
The proposal is part of a broader initiative to extend tax cuts from his first term and is expected to be funded through tariffs.
Economic analysis indicates that around 4% of families reported tips to the IRS from 2017 to 2022, with many low-earning workers already exempt from federal taxes.
While tipped workers, on average, could see an $1,700 tax cut, the benefits may not be uniform across different occupations.
Details remain uncertain as the Republicans and Trump are still drafting the tax policy, making the final outcome unpredictable.
