Additionally, President Trump last month pushed Congress to approve a "big, beautiful" tax and spending bill that fulfills several other campaign promises. "In the coming weeks and months, we will pass the largest tax cuts in American history — and that will include no tax on tips, no tax on Social Security, and no tax on overtime," he said.

Trump has said for months that he wanted to end the federal income tax on Social Security benefits. About 6.3 million Californians receive Social Security benefits.

Trump vowed to end Social Security taxes, but the GOP’s latest tax bill keeps them—offering a senior deduction instead amid fiscal limits.
