Permanent Tax Cuts for American Families Act of 2025
This bill makes permanent the increased standard deduction amounts for individual income tax filers. It raises the single filer standard deduction from $4,400 to $18,000 and the married filing jointly amount from $3,000 to $12,000 under the Internal Revenue Code. The bill also requires annual inflation adjustments to these amounts, using a specific formula based on the cost-of-living adjustment. These changes directly affect millions of American households that use the standard deduction instead of itemizing deductions on their federal tax returns.
