What the OBBBA does NOT change: FICA taxes

Social Security (6.2%) and Medicare (1.45%) taxes still apply to all your tip and overtime income.

This is money your employer deducts from your paycheck — it won't change.

This is not a criticism of the law — it's a fact many calculators hide. You deserve the accurate picture.

State Tax Impact — Texas

Texas has no state income tax — you keep 100% of these savings.
