It is high time to eliminate the deduction for state taxes. If Californians want parks at every corner, free aid to illegal aliens, free health care for all, that’s just great. Power to them.
They just cannot forgo their rightful US taxes because they have elected to spend high taxes in their state. Those of us in poor flyover country states struggle to keep our schools open, but tax ourselves less and don’t benefit by a big deduction for state taxes. That’s fine. Just don’t have us pick up California’s tab.

So before you were able to deduct the taxes you paid to state and local governments and now you can’t? Is that what this is about? It seems you’d lose some deductions and pay more tax on your income.
..and California.
I don’t want to subsidize the local taxes for those on the coasts.
I hope fellow freeper’s from those states understand that position. Nothing against you guys.
California too. When I lived there that was the argument when they wanted to raise taxes on the “rich”, that it was deductible on FIT.
In what way does this impact high tax states? Sure, it will reduce the deduction on federal returns for those who live in these states, but aren’t we also talking about lowering federal tax rates? Without the numbers, it’s hard to judge any proposal. But never let any made-up crisis go to waste in a DEM-controlled state.
Taxing taxes is not so hot.
Blue states like New York, Illinois, California, Pennsylvania, and Ohio contain enough Republican congressmen to make sure this never gets out of the House
We need the bill. Let’s see what it actually says. Lets dont speak conclusions about the bill until the bill is properly heard in public committee hearings. Dont just come out and conclude “good” bill. We decide for ourselves what a “good bill is after thourough vetting and amending. We dont decide “good” bill based on others groundless conclusions based on nothingness. What is the exact wording?
BWAHAHAHA !! Stick it to blue !
Of course, it will never through the republican congress.
a move that Gov. Andrew Cuomo has warned would be a “death blow” for New York.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Go for it.
The communist states need some reality.
It’s not a death blow to states like New York.
It’s removing the indirect subsidy that the Federal Government gives to residents of states with higher state and local taxes.
If NY thinks high local taxes are a good idea, why do the people in the other 49 states subsidize their high taxes by making that tax money paid with pre-Federal tax dollars?
Maybe they should lower state and local taxes.
Sounds like a good solid plan.
Make it flipped on Fed also.
NO Taxpayer money for (elective) abortion, stadiums, illegals, sanctuary cities, start enforcing BACK TO WORK initiatives, the list goes on and on and on - for town, city, county, state & Federal....
Leave no tern unstoned.
OUTSTANDING!!!
According to leftist think, they need to be taxed more.
Andrew Cuomo was the death blow to NY.
Should have been done years ago. Blue states will start flipping to red faster than you can say H&R Block.
I live in NY - I would not mind a death blow to NY
