The new tax law signed by President Trump last week changes the math for writing off charitable contributions. Jan crawford explains. How you doing . Reporter in the nations capital, this Charity Serves hundreds of meals daily to the needy, operating largely through charitable donations. But under the new tax reform law, nonprofits like so others might eat may soon be take a big hit. We are absolutely concerned that tax reform, and also just confusion about what the new laws are going too, will Impact Charitable giving. Reporter its a concern shared by nonprofits across the country because the new tax law lowers incentives for people to donate. Before, people could reduce their tax burden by writing off charitable donations and itemizing them on their tax returnses. Under the new law, many middleclass taxpayers no longer will need to itemize and instead offers a bigger deduction, doubled to 12,000 for individuals and 24,000 for couples. But heres the rub if you dont itemize, you cant deduct your charitable donations. People will continue to give to charity. They just wont give as much. If you get 1,000 more in your paycheck and theres no financial incentive to give it to charity, you may still give to charity, but youre probably going to get washing machine. Reporter united way c. E. O. Brian gallagher says his organization, which collects 3. 5 billion a year, in donations and funds char itz like so others might eat, expects to take in 300 million less. He estimates that overall Charitable Giving will go down 13 billion a year, which would mean up to 10 Million People will lose needed services. Whats the impact of that . The impact is is lives. Its its human lives. Reporter now, Financial Advisers say if youre planning to stop itemizing, you sul your 2018 donations to charity in the next few days before the end of the year so you can deduct what you were planning to give to charity or your church on this years tax returns. Bianna. Golodryga some good advice. Jan, our thanks to. President trump has a doctors appointment on january 12. Its a checkup.

Chip reid is traveling with the president in florida. Infrastructure is by far the easiest. People want it. Reporter fixing the nations deteriorating infrastructure appears to be at the top of the president s agenda for next year. Republicans and democrats, were going to have tremendous democrat support on infrastructure. Reporter in fact, its not that simple. Democrats want a trilliondollar federal spending program, but many republicans want to spend only onefifth of that, 200 billion, money that would be used to form publicprivate partnerships to generate the rest of the funding. Democrats say it will never work. Reaching a compromise in an Election Year when the two sides are that far apart will not be easy. Yes, we can reporter also high on both parties agendas, finding a way to allow nearly 800,000 socalled dreamez people who were brought to the u. S. As children to remain here permanently, a law that protect themselves from deportation expires in march. Democrats say its a moral imperative. They are americans in every single important way but one their paperwork. Reporter the president has made his personal feelings clear. I have a love for these people and, heapfully, now congress will be able to help them and do it properly. Reporter though he has tied his support to funding for a border balm another key issue funding the federal government. Republicans an risk a partial government shutdown. And a longfestering another, obamacare. The tax bill the president signed last week ends the individual mandate. It ultimately leads to the end of obamacare. Reporter but thats far from clear dispp in a tweet this, we the president predicted that democrats and republicans will eventually come together and develop a great new health care plan. The president and congress will have to move quickly if they really do hope to compromise on these issues because it wont be long before they move into full battle mode in preparation for the midterm elections. Bianna. Golodryga chip reid. Thank you. Isis struck afghanistans capital today. A suicide bomber from the sunni Extremist Group targeted a shiite cultural center. At least 41 people were killed. The attack underscores isis growing power in afghanistan. Joining us is now is micha the c. I. A. , and cbs News Senior National security contributor. Mike, great to have you on with this evening. Given todays attack, does isis in afghanistan pose a threat to the u. S. Similar to that of isis in iraq and syria . Bianna, afghanistan is one of the places where the isis cancer has spread. Its not yet a threat to the u. S. Homeland, but if it is allowed to continue to grow in strength, if it is allowed to acquire a safe haven, it could very well become a threat to the u. S. Homeland. Golodryga is the u. S. Doing enough to prevent that from happening . So the military pressure on isis in afghanistan is significant. Isis is one of the reasons why President Trump decided to lead a u. S. Troop presence there, and those operations against isis are intensive. Golodryga let me switch gears and ask you about secretary rex tillerson, who has written an oped, really promoting u. S. Foreign policy. He took a rather tough stand regarding russia. Peacefupeaceful resolution of te ukraine situation, there cannot be business as usual with russia. Mike, those are strong words, but does this carry any weight with Vladimir Putin . So they are tough words, but from putins perspective, he really only listens to the president. He mirror images, and in his system, he is the only person that matters. So when he looks at us, he thinks the president is the only person that matters. The most important thing to pint are u. S. Actions, and we have not taken tough action with regard to the meddling in the election. But just last week, we took very tough action by allowing the ukrainians to acquire from the United States antitank weapons. That is a very tough step regard to russia, and putin will see that.
