Tax plan would cut some families but raise others next year
Washington projections show a four person family with $12,500 in wages would gain a $310 net tax cut while a $25,000 family would face a $13 net tax increase and a $40,000 family a $115 rise under Carter's proposed federal income tax and Social Security changes. Tax writers in Congress expect intense debate over cuts in the budget year starting Oct. 1 and possible adjustments in Social Security financing, with administration officials pushing gradual reform and extending the earned income credit through 1981.

Proposal to cut OS Se for more families faces congressional study
The text outlines a welfare revision plan with a major element to cut or offset OS Se benefits for more families. It compares Social Security tax changes under the 1979 law with 1978, noting net tax hikes or cuts. It explains net tax figures exclude 1979 cuts from extensions of the earned income credit for low income four-person families, which could still reduce net taxes to zero if extended.
