Tax-Spending Cut Delay In House Vote For June
The 10 percent income tax surcharge tied to a $6 billion spending cut is postponed to the first week of June to gather votes and allow lobbying against the package. Labor leads a major push to block the $6 billion cut, arguing it harms antipoverty programs and city aid, while supporting a $4 billion cut shifted from defense and other areas. Kennedy opposes the $6 billion plan, Nixon backs it as a cure for the crisis, framing the issue as a defining test for any presidential contender.
