Many entertainment workers know that their tax bills increased after losing the ability to deduct common work expenses, like transportation to an audition, a talent agent and manager, or equipment such as expensive cameras, musical instruments, or tools, following the passage of the 2017 tax reform bill. It is important that we let Congress and the public know what entertainment workers are experiencing and why we must pass the Performing Artist Tax Parity Act (PATPA).
Sharing your story of how your taxes have been impacted helps us advance PATPA this year.
