tax relief
Lowered government burden
Tax relief is a reduction in the amount of tax owed, whether through deductions, credits, exemptions, or special programs.
Governments offer tax relief to encourage certain behaviors or ease financial burdens: tax relief for homeowners, disaster tax relief.
The phrase often appears in political contexts, where "relief" frames taxation as a burden to be lifted.
