just so you know how they are going about it

you can see it here:

Oh, and I am a teacher.

I spend more each year on things for my classroom than that $750 Trump paid in taxes for two years, usually more than $1,000

I am allowed to take off $250 above the line.

But as a result of Trump’s tax bill, I no longer can apply the rest against miscellany 2% of AGI for a deduction, at same time my state tax deduction being capped at 10K I am now paying an additional 2k+/year in federal income tax.
