Original Note:
The bill (https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-bill/25/text) would replace federal income taxes with a sales tax, and has a "family consumption allowance" provision. Thus, everyone would keep all of their income & be taxed on their purchases above the poverty level. The impact on the amount a family pays in taxes will vary.
