On the bill: Mr. Trump downplayed the legislation’s changes to Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act, which could cost at least 8.6 million Americans their health coverage, saying the changes weren’t “anything me[quote]aningful.” [b]He also flipped his position on raising the SALT deduction, which he supported during the campaign.[/b]

Which states have the highest share of taxpayers claiming SALT?

One way to measure the SALT cap’s impact is to look at which states have the highest share of taxpayers claiming the deduction. The higher the share of taxpayers claiming the SALT deduction, the greater the chance that the $10,000 cap impacts both a larger share of households and that such households are higher-income and incentivized to itemize deductions in lieu of claiming the standard deduction. (For context, according to the IRS, only 7% of taxpayers making under $200,000 itemized deductions in 2022, compared to 38% of taxpayers making over $200,000.)

In 2022, the most recent year for which tax data is available, the top five states were:

Washington, D.C.: 20.3% of taxpayers
Maryland: 19.8%
California: 15.3%
Utah: 13.7%
Virginia: 13.5%[/quote]
