AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would change federal income tax rules starting with tax years that begin after December 31, 2025. It would raise the base standard deduction to $50,000 for single filers and $75,000 for heads of household; under existing law, the joint-return amount is set at twice the single amount. It would replace the current income tax brackets with five rates of 25%, 30%, 40%, 50% and 70%. The 70% rate would apply to taxable income over $2,000,000 for joint filers and over $1,000,000 for single filers. It would also end the lower tax rates that now apply to capital gains.
