Congress again failed to restore your N.J. property tax break. Is the fight over?

SALT caucus

Rep. Josh Gottheimer announces the formation of a new congressional caucus to fight for restoring the full federal deduction for state and local taxes. Surrounding him are other founding members of the caucus.

First there was the $1.9 trillion coronavirus stimulus law. Then the $1 trillion infrastructure law. And then the $739 million climate change and health care legislation.

Throughout it all, restoring the federal deduction for state and local taxes — a top priority of New Jersey’s congressional delegation — didn’t make it into any of them.
