If you don't have a workplace retirement plan, such as a 401(k), you can deduct contributions from federal and state income taxes.

In 2013 the amount you can deduct is reduced or phased out for individuals with modified gross incomes of between $59.000 and $69.000, or married couples filing jointly with modified gross incomes of between $95,000 and $115,000. If you are not covered by a workplace retirement plan but your spouse is, the deduction is reduced between $178,000 and $188,000.
