Estate Tax Reform Could Lighten Federal Burden
A bipartisan group led by Rep. Jim McCrery introduces the Family Business Protection Act of 1995 to ease federal estate taxes on family farms and small businesses. The plan would exempt heirs up to 1.5 million dollars, with rates cut for higher values, aiming to prevent liquidation as wealth shifts across generations.

It ships 13 ships with tanks and materiel for 22,000 US Marines and soldiers, moves two aircraft carriers closer, and speeds joint Gulf war games with Kuwaitis to deter Saddam Hussein from attacking Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, or Jordan. The U N sanctions on Baghdad remain urged by the Clinton administration.
