The Senate passed the No Tax on Tips Act with a unanimous consent vote Tuesday, sending the standalone bill to the House of Representatives.
The bill allows taxpayers to claim a 100% deduction on tipped wages.
The House is currently weighing the proposal in the larger Trump-backed “Big Beautiful” budget reconciliation bill, for which some Republicans in both chambers have shown opposition.
On Tuesday, President Trump delivered remarks to House Republicans on Capitol Hill, where he reportedly asked lawmakers to stop haggling over the bill and move it forward to his desk.
The legislation includes an expansion of the 2017 Trump tax cuts, no tax on tips, no tax on Social Security, and no tax on overtime workers.
If the bill passes, “on top of all of these trade deals that we’re doing, this country will hit a point that you better go out and buy stock now. Let me tell you, this country will be like a rocket ship that goes straight up,” Trump has said.
Per Breitbart, the Senate passed the no tax on tips proposal by unanimous consent, meaning no Senators objected to the expidited passage.

President Trump has long championed this initiative. During a rally in Las Vegas, days after he was inaugurated on January 20, Trump announced his plans to make good on the campaign promise, and the crowd went wild. He further teased the potential complete elimination of income taxes for working class Americans.
The GOP-led effort to save American service workers would have been political suicide for the Democrats to vote against.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Kamala Harris, who really had no policy proposals to offer, even tried to steal the idea from President Trump while campaigning in Las Vegas last August.
Trump had already unveiled his proposal to eliminate tax on tips months earlier in the campaign.
The Gateway Pundit will continue to provide updates on this key legislation and the One Big Beautiful Bill.
