Washington – The U.S. House on Thursday approved a bill that would scrap for two years a $10,000 cap on the federal deductibility of state and local taxes, a limitation decried by taxpayers in wealthy states like Connecticut who have been hurt by the shrinking of the valuable tax break.
The House voted 218-206 to eliminate the state and local tax, or SALT, cap for 2020 and 2021, and increased the cap to $20,000 for married couples in 2019.
