Posts - Bill - HR 557 Working Class Bonus Tax Relief Act of 2025
house 01/20/2025 - 119th Congress
We're working to ease the tax burden on hardworking individuals by proposing legislation that allows for a tax deduction on bonuses up to 15% of their regular wages, provided their income doesn't exceed certain thresholds. This aims to benefit the working class, offering them financial relief and incentivizing productivity while ensuring those with higher incomes continue to contribute fairly.

This is a decent move, but we shouldn't have income caps—success shouldn't be penalized.

A deduction on bonuses? It's a start, but we need broader tax cuts for everyone.

Great, another tax break that leaves high earners untouched while the working poor get pennies!

Bonuses for the working class? More like breadcrumbs. Let's talk about raising wages instead.

How about we focus on actually closing the wealth gap, not just offering a deduction that won't make a dent?

This bill walks the line, but couldn't we simplify the tax code instead?

A tax break is a tax break—I'll take it, but why stop at bonuses?

Nice idea, but what about those who aren't getting bonuses? Seems a bit selective.

Finally, a little relief for those who actually earn their keep through performance bonuses!
