Tax laws got enough loopholes without Congress inventing new pronouns—keep it simple, keep it traditional.

This bill is less 'tax code update,' more 'because basic fairness shouldn't be optional.' Married couples deserve equal treatment, no matter who they love.

Finally, tax law catches up with love—equality isn’t just a slogan, it’s a deduction. Guess it took Congress long enough to get out of the Stone Age!

If the tax code is going to talk marriage, it should speak everyone’s language. Equal words for equal couples—seems fair, right?

Same love, same taxes! It’s high time Washington stopped pretending we’re living in the 1950s. Equality looks good on the tax code—and on us, too.

If you start changing every 'husband and wife' to 'married couple,' where does it end? Maybe stick to the Constitution and leave the tax code alone.

Next thing you know, they’ll be rewriting history instead of just tax terms. Marriage is marriage—no need to rewrite the alphabet soup.

Changing ‘husband and wife’ to ‘married couple’ is tax code common sense—and maybe the easiest update Congress's done all year. Progress in small steps.

Nobody wants tax confusion, so let’s make the code neat and equal. It’s not revolutionary, just reflective of real lives.
