S 2780 United States Senate · 119th Congress

No Tax on Large Party Tips Act

This bill reclassifies two types of restaurant tips as "voluntary" for tax purposes: (1) tips automatically added to a customer's bill at payment time, and (2) tips suggested by a business (like "18% suggested"). It directly affects customers paying large group bills and restaurants that use these tip structures. The key provision exempts these specific tips from being counted as taxable income under current tax rules, meaning customers wouldn't owe income tax on them. This is a concrete policy change to the tax treatment of certain service charges, not a broader tax overhaul.
