Congress.gov says H.R.1 became Public Law 119-21 and includes a temporary above-the-line deduction through 2028 of up to $25,000 for qualified tip income.

A no-tax-on-tips policy for service workers became law in 2025, a partial policy outcome aligned with hospitality-worker support, although it was enacted through a broader reconciliation bill rather than Cortez Masto's stand-alone bill.
