Hinson Highlights Tax Break At Independence Roundtable
Northeast Iowa bar and restaurant owners welcomed a tax provision exempting tip and overtime income from federal tax as part of a GOP bill. The measure allows tip income to be deducted up to 25 000 and overtime up to 12 500, phasing out above 150 000 single and 300 000 married. Local managers Kirueger and Zingg urged retention of staff, noting wages and tips influence recruitment, while Rep Ashley Hinson urged tax relief and permanence of small business provisions during the Tuesday discussion in Independence.
