With this legislation in place, more of our hard-earned money will stay in the hands of taxpayers, giving families more control over how their money is spent. Im optimistic this package will also give farmers, homeowners, small businesses and families more certainty about what savings theyll be able to find during tax time this year and in the years ahead. Leaving what you earn in your wallet is essential to growing a healthy and sustainable economy. The bipartisan Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act makes a number of temporary tax provisions permanent, delivering predictability, clarity and certainty for families and job creators. Included in the list of permanent extensions are: Section 179 business expensing limitations, which are important to many South Dakota farmers, ranchers and small businesses Improvements to 529 college savings plans Deduction for state and local sales tax Deduction for certain expenses of elementary and secondary school teachers Deductions for charitable giving The legislation also temporarily extends the following through the end of 2016: Biodiesel tax credit Deduction for certain tuition and higher education expenses Indian employment tax credit Moratorium on Obamacares medical device tax (extended through 2017) Finally, this legislation includes a series of reforms designed to rein in the power of the IRS and better protect taxpayers, such as: Firing IRS employees who take politically motivated actions against taxpayers Requiring IRS employees to respect the Taxpayer Bill of Rights Prohibit IRS employees from using personal email accounts for official business Click here for a section-by-section summary of the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
