Gerhard Randers-Pehrson, an 81-year-old inhabitant of Ossining, NY, believes that the $ 10,000 upper limit-but not too much. While Mr. Randers-Pehrson, a retired researcher, said that he paid $ 16,000 in government and local taxes last year, but he does not expect to personally benefit from a higher upper limit. He would take the standard deduction instead of taking up. But the problem is still bothering him.
“I don't think we should punish areas that try to do the municipal services you provided,” he said. His congress member, representative Mike Lawler, a Republican and one of the holdingouts on this topic, has proposed to raise the upper limit for individuals and 200,000 US dollars for married couples to $ 100,000. Mr. Randers-Pehrson believes that such an increase would be too high.
Even among Republicans who want to increase the border, it was a challenge to agree to demand.
Representative Jeff van Drew, Republican of New Jersey, has declared that an upper limit of around 30,000 or 40,000 dollars would be acceptable, while a group of four New York Republicans published an explanation on Thursday, in which an upper limit of $ 30,000 “insult” is called “. The representative Young Kim, Republican of California, recently suspended a deduction of $ 62,000 per individual. The representative Nicole Malliotakis, a Republican in New York, who has the committee and funds for the mean, suggested that Americans can deduct the full deduction at a certain income limit.
“I have always concentrated on people I represent in Staten Island and Brooklyn, who mostly earn all below 500,000 US dollars,” she said.
Republican leaders of the Republicans are optimistic that they can thread the needle. Beyond Salt, they also have a last minute advance from Mr. Trump to raise taxes on the rich, although the president had returned from this idea in a social media contribution on Friday. “The Republicans probably shouldn't do it, but I'm okay when they do it!” The President wrote.
