<<No Tax on Tips became the law of the land with the passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill, but a handful of blue state governors are refusing to give their constituents this tax relief. And the Trump administration isn’t happy about it.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent issued a blistering statement on Wednesday that exposed how far these states will go to block relief simply because it came from President Donald Trump.

Bessent described the OBBB as “the most pro-worker, pro-family legislation in a generation.” The law put real money back into the hands of people who actually earn it. No Tax on Tips for servers and bartenders. No Tax on Overtime for linemen and factory workers. A badly needed deduction for seniors who rely on Social Security. These are concrete victories for people, many of whom live paycheck to paycheck.

Yet, the Democrat governors of Colorado, New York, Illinois, and the District of Columbia decided their residents should not share the same wins. Bessent called their defiance “a blatant act of political obstructionism” and said these states are “deliberately blocking their own residents from receiving these historic benefits at the state level.”>>
