LBJ to Sign Record Tax Cut Bill Today
The Senate sent President Johnson the largest tax cut in history, an 11.5 billion measure cutting personal taxes by about 19 percent on average and corporate taxes by about 9 percent. House and Senate action cleared swiftly, with Johnson expected to sign today and payrolls reflecting lower withholding from March 4. The plan lowers rates across 84 million individuals and 550,000 corporations, with relief skewed toward lower and higher ends and an investment credit aiding corporations. The move echoes Kennedy’s call for tax cuts to spur full employment and growth.
