About Trump Tax Changes 2025

TCJA and OBBA Explained

Learn about the tax changes under the Big Beautiful Bill Act and how they compare to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA).

Educational Scenario

The "One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBA)" described below is a hypothetical tax scenario created for educational purposes to demonstrate potential tax policy changes. This is not actual legislation.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), passed in 2017 during President Trump's first term, lowered income tax rates (e.g., top rate from 39.6% to 37%), doubled the standard deduction ($6,350 to $12,000 for single filers), and eliminated personal exemptions ($4,050). Set to expire in 2025, it aimed to boost economic growth but increased the deficit by $1.9 trillion (CBO estimate). CBO TCJA Report.

For educational purposes, this calculator models a hypothetical "One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBA)" that would make TCJA tax cuts permanent, increase the standard deduction to $15,750 for single filers and $31,500 for joint filers, and raise the Child Tax Credit to $2,200 per child. This hypothetical scenario introduces new deductions: up to $25,000 on tips, $12,500 on overtime, $10,000 on auto loan interest for U.S.-made cars, and a $6,000 bonus for seniors. This is a fictional scenario designed to illustrate potential tax policy impacts.
