The Olympics are ending, but the tax story won?t. U.S. Olympians get $25,000 for gold, $15,000 for silver, and $10,000 for bronze, and it should not be a surprise that it’s taxable. A bill introduced by Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), S. 3471, the Olympic Tax Elimination Act, would eliminate the tax. President Obama supports it and White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said the President would sign it.
