LAS VEGAS (KSNV) — A Nevada congresswoman says she's working to fix the reconciliation bill's changes to the tax code when it comes to gambling losses, which have drawn the ire of several professional players.

U.S. Rep. Dina Titus said the budget proposal contains a provision that harms professional gamblers by limiting loss deductions. "I'm working on a legislative fix that fairly treats gaming losses in the tax code," Titus wrote to X.

The U.S. Senate passed a version of what President Donald Trump dubbed the "Big, Beautiful Bill" that would limit deductions related to gambling winnings to 90% of losses. Under that change, if a player were to report winnings of $100,000 and losses of $100,000, the player would still owe taxes on $10,000.

Several professional poker players have slammed the provisions, including Beyond the Game founder Phil Galfond and FiveThirtyEight founder Nate Silver. Russell Fox, a tax professional with a Las Vegas-based firm and another poker pro, wrote in a blog post that the bill is "ugly towards gambling."

Most amateur gamblers would be okay, Fox said, but professionals who report wins and losses could suffer. If the Senate version of the bill becomes law, they'll have to keep a gambling log to ensure their actual winnings are accurately reported. "Second, this would be another big negative towards gambling and would definitely hurt tourism in areas like Nevada," Fox wrote.
