Public Law 119-21 was approved July 4, 2025. Title VII, Subtitle A includes Chapter 1, 'Providing Permanent Tax Relief for Middle-class Families and Workers,' with reduced rates, an increased standard deduction, and an increased child tax credit; Chapter 2 provides new middle-class tax relief including deductions for tips, overtime, and car-loan interest.
Assessments
The original same-term House tax-relief effort passed the House but did not become law in the 118th Congress. In the later 119th Congress, Public Law 119-21 was enacted on July 4, 2025 and included multiple individual and family tax provisions expressly framed as middle-class tax relief, including reduced rates, higher standard deduction, increased child tax credit, and deductions for tips, overtime, and car-loan interest. McCormick remained in federal office and voted Aye on final House passage of H.R. 1, the enacted vehicle, so the broad promise is best credited as delivered in a later term.
McCormick supported H.R. 7024, the Tax Relief for American Families and Workers Act, which passed the House during the same term. However, the bill stalled in the Senate and did not become law, so the promised outcome of providing real tax relief for middle class families was not delivered. His vote constitutes a serious legislative attempt, so the effort badge applies despite the failed outcome.
