    How would allowing workers to deduct bonuses up to 15% of wages affect the federal budget and tax revenue over the next five years?

  2. 02

    What evidence supports the claim that bonus deductions for workers earning under $100,000 would meaningfully increase household income or job creation?

  3. 03

    Since this deduction expires in 2029, how would workers and employers adjust if Congress does not extend it before the deadline?
