Legislation to repeal a decreased deduction limit on gambling losses has two additional cosponsors, the bill’s original sponsor announced on social media Monday.

Nevada Rep. Dina Titus said fellow Democratic Representatives Darren Soto of Florida and Chris Deluzio of Pennsylvania signed on as cosponsors on her FAIR BET act, which would repeal the deduction change included in the sweeping “One Big Beautiful Bill” Congress passed earlier this month. Along with Titus, the bill now has nine cosponsors, six Democrats and three Republicans.

“I’ll keep pushing this bipartisan fix through Congress,” Titus wrote in an X post Monday.

HR 4304 is now in the powerful House Ways and Means Committee, which writes taxation and fiscal legislation.
