WASHINGTON, D.C. – Any unnecessary delay in extending the 2017 Trump tax cuts heightens the risk that all Americans will see their taxes go up – including for the 91 percent of Americans who utilize the guaranteed deduction to lower and simplify their tax bill. Under the Trump tax cuts, Republicans doubled this tax deduction – making that option more attractive for more Americans to utilize in lowering the amount they owe to the IRS and making tax filing faster and less complicated.
