Sure — here’s the compressed, modified, and Donald Trump announced a new tax proposal through social media aimed at Americans aged 65 and older, introducing a special tax deduction starting next year.
Seniors 65+ would qualify for a $6,000 tax deduction, while married couples where both spouses are 65+ would receive a combined $12,000 deduction, offering relief for those living on fixed incomes or Social Security.
The proposal is part of Trump’s broader 2026 tax plan, which focuses on changing how retirement income is taxed so retirees can keep more of their money.
Supporters believe the policy could ease financial pressure caused by rising living and healthcare costs, especially as inflation strains retirees’ budgets.
Many seniors have responded positively, seeing the proposal as a targeted effort to support retirees and financially vulnerable groups.
