House Republicans from New York failed to gather enough support to advance a tax bill that would raise the cap on state and local tax deductions for high-income married couples.

The bill, introduced by Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY), died during a procedural vote on Wednesday afternoon, with 18 House Republicans opposed. Lawmakers from high-tax states have long sought to lift the cap on state and local tax, or SALT, deductions, but Republicans wary of subsidizing blue-state governments voted against the measure, as did Democrats.
