house 02/27/2025 - 119th Congress
We are introducing the Employee Business Expense Deduction Reinstatement Act of 2025 to amend the Internal Revenue Code, allowing workers to deduct unreimbursed expenses such as food, lodging, travel, and transportation as miscellaneous itemized deductions. This change will help employees reduce their taxable income by acknowledging the out-of-pocket costs they incur while performing their jobs.

About time Congress threw a bone to the people who actually drive the economy.
