The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) enacted in 2017 is set to expire at the end of 2025 unless Congress takes action to extend it. This could lead to significant tax increases for the average American household, including the potential loss of important deductions and credits like the Child Tax Credit. While tax reform efforts are underway, progress has been slow due to differing proposals in the House and Senate. Without an extension, the expiration of the TCJA's provisions would essentially amount to tax hikes on the middle class. I urge you to prioritize protecting vital programs and services that millions of Americans rely on, rather than allowing these across-the-board tax increases to take effect. Extending the TCJA in a responsible way that avoids burdening working families and preserves funding for essential areas like healthcare, education, and scientific research should be a top priority.
