<p>As the <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.cnbc.com/elections/">midterm elections</a> approach, Republicans are touting President <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.cnbc.com/donald-trump/">Donald Trump</a>&#8216;s &#8220;<a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/03/trump-big-beautiful-bill-tax-changes.html">big beautiful bill</a>&#8221; to voters as they fight to keep slim majorities in Congress.</p>
<p>But certain Americans have benefited more from <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/working-families-tax-cuts" target="_blank">Trump&#8217;s tax breaks</a> than others, policy experts say.  </p>
<p>Trump&#8217;s legislation, also known as the &#8220;Working Families Tax Cuts,&#8221; made permanent his <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/06/18/plan-for-expiring-trump-tax-breaks.html">2017 tax changes </a>while adding new tax breaks, including deductions for <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/12/23/no-tax-on-tips-who-benefits.html">tip income</a>, <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/06/trump-no-tax-on-overtime.html">overtime earnings</a>, <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2026/01/18/big-beautiful-bill-senior-deduction.html">seniors</a> and <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2026/02/13/interest-on-new-car-loans-tax-deductible.html">auto loan interest</a>, among others. The bill also added a bigger <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/03/trumps-big-beautiful-bill-salt-deduction.html">federal deduction limit for state and local taxes</a>, or SALT, for filers who itemize.</p>
<p>In <a rel="nofollow" href="https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sb0630/" target="_blank">prepared remarks</a> before the House Committee on Financial Services this week, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told lawmakers the legislation delivered tax relief &#8220;directly to millions of low- and middle-income Americans.&#8221;</p>

<p>More than 64 million tax returns claimed at least one of Trump&#8217;s &#8220;signature new tax cuts&#8221; — the deductions for tips, overtime, auto loan interest or the enhanced senior deduction, Bessent said this week. </p>
<p>Trump&#8217;s tax cuts were also a popular theme throughout the Republicans&#8217; <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2026/09/09/trump-republicans-congress-stock-trading-ban-midterm-convention.html">midterm convention</a> in Dallas this month.</p>
<p>However, these tax provisions, and others, &#8220;hit households differently,&#8221; which means the impact varied based on a family&#8217;s unique situation, Joseph Rosenberg, a senior fellow at the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center, told CNBC. </p>
<p>White House spokesman Kush Desai told CNBC in an email that &#8220;tens of millions of Americans have taken advantage of at least one of these signature provisions, and President Trump will continue to tout this historic achievement for the American people.&#8221;</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a breakdown of who benefited most from Trump&#8217;s tax breaks, according to policy experts.  </p>
</div>
<h2 class="ArticleBody-subtitle"><a rel="nofollow" id="headline0"/>Extending Trump&#8217;s 2017 tax cuts</h2>
<div class="group">
<p>Trump&#8217;s legislation made permanent his changes in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, which included lower tax brackets, bigger standard deductions, a more generous child tax credit and a higher estate and gift tax exemption, among other provisions.</p>
<p>Without extensions, some <a rel="nofollow" href="https://taxfoundation.org/data/all/federal/tax-calculator-obbba/" target="_blank">62% of Americans</a> would have seen tax increases in 2026 when these provisions were scheduled to expire, according to the Tax Foundation. </p>
<p>&#8220;A clear majority of the benefit across the board&#8221; came from making these tax breaks permanent versus the new deductions, said Garrett Watson, vice president of federal tax policy with the Tax Foundation. </p>
<p>But this was &#8220;extending the status quo,&#8221; so many taxpayers won&#8217;t feel the difference, he said. </p>
</div>
<h2 class="ArticleBody-subtitle"><a rel="nofollow" id="headline1"/>Trump&#8217;s new tax deductions </h2>
<div class="group">
<p>The new deductions, which were floated on the 2024 presidential campaign trail, phase out, or get smaller, based on certain income thresholds.  </p>
<p>&#8220;Those all go toward specific taxpayers,&#8221; Watson said. &#8220;For certain taxpayers, that may have made a big&#8230;</p>
