President Donald Trump Credits Las Vegas Waitress for ‘No Tax on Tips’ Idea
President Trump visited Las Vegas to tout his “No Tax on Tips” policy Trump says Americans finally have a president who believes and supports the working middle class In Las Vegas on Thursday, President Donald Trump revealed how he came up with the idea of lifting federal taxes on tips. President Donald Trump speaks during a roundtable discussion on his “No Tax on Tips” policy at the AC Hotel Las Vegas Symphony Park in Las Vegas, Nevada, on April 16, 2026. Trump says America finally has a president who believes in the working class. (Image: Getty) Appearing at the AC Hotel Las Vegas Symphony Park in downtown Las Vegas, Trump explained that it was during a trip to Southern Nevada in 2024 when he was told by a waitress that tips shouldn’t be taxed. Las Vegas is the birthplace of a little idea known as ‘No Tax on Tips.’ This is the birthplace. A young waitress came up to me during dinner and she said, ‘Sir, we should have no tax on tips.’ I said, ‘That’s the greatest thing I’ve ever heard.’ I walked outside to the fake news media and said, “Ladies and gentlemen, there will be no tax on tips. That was it,” Trump revealed. “Las Vegas is home to the largest concentration of tipped workers anywhere in the country, anywhere in the world, actually,” the president continued. “And thanks to our tax cuts, thousands of Nevada waiters, waitresses, casino dealers, bartenders, bellmen, barbers, caddies — boy do I love those caddies — and valets received the biggest tax refunds of their entire lives.” Tax Immunity Limited to $25,000 The No Tax on Tips provision was a component of Trump and the Republicans’ One Big Beautiful Bill, which the president signed into law on July 4, 2025. The law allows tipped workers to retain 100% of their tips, up to $25,000, before being considered as taxable income. The IRS won’t tax a worker’s first $25,000 in tips for the federal tax years of 2025 through 2028. The provision would then need to be extended by Congress. Then-Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic candidate for the 2024 election, said she too would support eliminating federal taxes on tips. Trump called his challenger a “copycat.” During his stop in Las Vegas, Trump thanked Nevadans for delivering him the Silver State, though he said “the competition wasn’t the toughest.” Americans finally have the kind of president who believes in them. I believe in rewarding you for the great work you’ve done, the great job you’ve done, and for having to suffer for four years of embarrassment. Our country was an embarrassment,” Trump declared. “All over the world, they laughed at us. They’re not laughing anymore,” Trump continued. Gambling Deductions Not Addressed Another OBBB provision that stands to greatly impact Nevada and the casino and gambling industries as a whole is that deductions for gambling losses were reduced from 100% to 90% against winnings. That means a person who wins $100,000 gambling during a year but also loses $100,000 would still need to pay federal taxes on $10,000. US Rep. Dina Titus (D-NV), who has introduced legislation in Congress to restore the gambling deduction to 100%, took to X to express her frustrations. “Just imagine, you owe taxes on money you never earned,” Titus said in a video posted to X. “We call that phantom income. That sounds unfair, right? Well, it is, but that’s exactly what’s happening under President Trump’s Big Beautiful BS bill.” The post President Donald Trump Credits Las Vegas Waitress for ‘No Tax on Tips’ Idea appeared first on Casino.org.

Trump Pitches “No Tax on Tips” in Vegas as Gamblers Query Deductions
President Trump is set to visit Las Vegas on April 19 His visit comes a day after Tax Day Trump is expected to promote his No Tax on Tips policy President Donald Trump will travel next week to Las Vegas, where he’s expected to promote his “No Tax on Tips” at a to-be-announced rally somewhere in Southern Nevada, but he’s likely to face questions from gamblers over a potentially disruptive policy concerning gambling deductions. President Donald Trump visits with patrons at a craps table at Circa Resort & Casino following his remarks on his policy to end tax on tips in Las Vegas on Jan. 25, 2025. Trump will return to Las Vegas next week to hype his One Big Beautiful Bill tax benefits for casino workers. (Image: Getty) Trump is scheduled to appear in Las Vegas next Thursday, April 16. The president’s stop comes the day after the federal deadline for filing taxes with the IRS without an extension. The president will discuss how the One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB) will help casino and hospitality workers in Las Vegas and across the country by reducing their federal tax liabilities on tips. The Republicans’ tax bill allows tipped workers to deduct up to $25,000 of their tips from their federal tax obligations beginning in 2026. You’ll hear a lot from the president about how his policies have benefited the American people, and I’m proud to report that the president will be traveling next week to the great states of Nevada and Arizona to tout this historic accomplishment over the course of the next week,” said White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt. The OBBB authorized the tips statute for the 2026 tax year through at least 2028, when Congress would need to extend the provision for it to continue. No Tax on Tips The policy of no federal tax on a worker’s first $25,000 in tips was welcomed by even Trump opponents, including the Culinary Union, the largest casino workers’ trade group in the country. The aid comes after a difficult year in Las Vegas, where visitation was down 7.5% in 2025. During a stop at Circa Resort & Casino in downtown Las Vegas in early 2025, Trump touted the no tax on tips pledge. “If you’re a restaurant worker, a server, a valet, a bellhop, a bartender, one of my caddies, I go through caddies like candy, your tips will be 100% yours,” Trump said. Another OBBA Tax Provision Targets Gamblers However, another key provision of the OBBB, as it relates to gaming, threatens the health of Nevada and other gaming states because it reduces the amount of losses a gambler filing an itemized federal tax return can deduct against their winnings. The Republicans’ tax overhaul lowered the gambling deduction for losses against winnings from 100% to 90%. The change means a gambler who wins $100,000 during the year but also loses $100,000 would still be responsible for federal taxes on $10,000 of phantom income. The gambling deduction had allowed professional and casual gamblers to deduct losses against winnings, similarly to how businesses are allowed to deduct most expenses against revenue. US Rep. Dina Titus (D-NV) and Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV) have filed legislation in Congress to restore the gambling deduction to 100%. When @POTUS us here in Nevada talking taxes next week, let’s ask him to fix the 90% gambling loss deduction,” Titus wrote on X. Titus’ FAIR Bet Act would allow tax filers to deduct 100% of their gambling losses against their winnings. The law, should it pass, could be retroactive to the start of 2026. Cortez Masto is behind similar legislation called the FULL House Act. Proponents of keeping the 90% cap on gambling losses argue that gambling is a form of entertainment, and therefore expenditures shouldn’t be deductible. Mirit Eyal-Cohen, the Joseph D. Peeler Professor of Law at the University of Alabama School of Law, and Jay Soled, the distinguished professor of Taxation at Rutgers Business School, opined on the issued in a recent editorial published in The Hill. “Some may argue that if gambling winnings are taxed, fairness requires offsetting losses, as with stocks or other investments. But the tax code already denies deductions for income-producing activities if they are infused with personal consumption, such as taking a prospective client to a Broadway show, ” Eyal-Cohen wrote. “Consistency requires the denial of the gambling loss deduction,” She concluded.
