IRS says Public Law 119-21 made TCJA-era tax rate tables permanent, made standard deduction increases permanent, and increased Section 179 expensing.
Assessments
Flood's promise was to protect TCJA tax policy and pursue additional tax and regulatory relief. During his current federal House term, H.R. 1 became Public Law 119-21, and IRS guidance indicates it made major TCJA-era rate and standard deduction provisions permanent while increasing Section 179 expensing. Flood voted Aye on final House concurrence on July 3, 2025, so the core tax commitment was enacted with direct same-term candidate participation. The evidence is stronger on taxes than on regulations, but the claim's central deliverable was substantially fulfilled.
