The alleged “TRUMP idea” arrives years after ex-Republican presidential candidate and former Rep. Ron Paul, in a Jan. 2012 op-ed, called it an “outrage” that wait staff and other service workers had to pay taxes on tips they earned on the clock.
The ex-Texas lawmaker, in 2007 and years thereafter, introduced legislation in Congress that looked to exempt tips from federal income and payroll taxes.
“That’s because I understand ending taxes on tips will give these workers a pay raise, letting them keep more money to put toward things like a house or car payment, their retirement, or their own and/or their children’s education,” wrote Paul in the Las Vegas Sun op-ed.
Congressional records also show that at least one other lawmaker has called for no taxes on tips as former Rep. Phil Crane (R-Ill.) pushed the proposal back in 1982.
