WATCH: GOP Congressman Says Bill Language Is Written To Fulfill Trump Campaign Proposal
In an interview with Maria Bartiromo, Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) said he and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) wrote the language for legislation to eliminate taxes on tips.
“DID YOU KNOW: @tedcruz & I have already written the bill language to eliminate tax on tips – HR 8941 ‘No Tax On Tips Act,'” Donalds wrote on X.
“Our bill is a critical component of Trump tax policy,” he added.
Donalds said most of the tax policy is “going to be reauthorizing the Trump tax cuts.”
The Florida Republican said it’s the “best tax policy our nation has ever had.”
“Putting that into this vehicle is not going to be overly complex,” Donalds continued.
“If you want to talk about the additives to that, no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security, yes, you have to write that language,” he added.
Donalds said Congress must:
Renew Trump Tax Cuts
Eliminate Tax On Overtime
Eliminate Tax On Social Security

Per Newsweek:
Donalds said: “There’s going to be a lot of stuff that has to go into this bill. I’m not really going to get caught into if it is one bill or two. I think the job right now is putting together the overall package…So when you put all that stuff together with border security, which is going to be central to all of this just like tax policy, we can deliver it, it’s just working through the finer points and details with our colleagues in the House and Senate.”
House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Louisiana Republican, also appeared on Sunday Morning Futures and not only reiterated his plan to seek a single reconciliation bill as Trump has directed, but to do so within the first 100 days of the new administration.
“We’re targeting a vote in the House,” he said. “It may be in the first week of April. Now, everything’s got to move in the right sequence, and along the way, I think we’re going to keep those trains moving in the right direction and on time.”
The House speaker added: “And if that happens, we’ll get it, we’ll get it out of the House in early April, maybe as soon as April 3, and then move it over to the Senate. That would put that bill on the president’s desk for signature by the end of April. That would be fantastic.”
April 30 would mark the 100th day of the administration, and passing the bill would mark a significant achievement for the president-elect as he seeks to act upon what he and his allies have called a “clear mandate” from the American voters to pursue his agenda.
In an appearance on CNBC’s “Squawk Box,” Cruz said he filed the bill days after Trump announced the idea at his Las Vegas rally.

“Members of Congress are getting to work on one powerful Bill that will bring our Country back, and make it greater than ever before. We must Secure our Border, Unleash American Energy, and Renew the Trump Tax Cuts, which were the largest in History, but we will make it even better – NO TAX ON TIPS,” Trump posted on X.
“IT WILL ALL BE MADE UP WITH TARIFFS, AND MUCH MORE, FROM COUNTRIES THAT HAVE TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF THE U.S. FOR YEARS. Republicans must unite, and quickly deliver these Historic Victories for the American People. Get smart, tough, and send the Bill to my desk to sign as soon as possible. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” he added.
