Bill's Fate Uncertain As Tax Vote Nears
Washington AP The fate of a compromise bill boosting taxes by 98.3 billion dollars over three years is uncertain as the House and Senate prepare to vote under White House pressure. Reagan backers say votes are short, mainly due to conservative House Republicans opposing the rise. White House officials expect a victory by week’s end with a majority in both houses. The tax hike would split between business and individuals and adds measures including withholding on interest and dividends.
