Republicans Push Tax Break for Homeowners

Politico: “House colleagues in New York, New Jersey and California — where property taxes can easily exceed the current $10,000 cap for middle-class homeowners — will join him this weekend at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago transition headquarters to advocate for tax relief. The battleground members in the closely divided House know SALT could make or break their midterm campaigns, and interviews with six of them across the three states illuminated their strategy.”

“They plan to remind Trump of his campaign promise to ‘get SALT back,’ argue that the deduction helps middle-class voters in states that help decide House control and even appeal to him as a fellow New York property owner.”
