Tax relief trimmed as conference drops many provisions
The House and Senate conferees cut about 17 billion dollars in tax relief from the bill and sparred over a plan to finance presidential campaigns with federal income taxes. Nixon opposes the bill with the campaign plan and budget busting amendments, while Democrats push to keep some relief provisions and modify others to aid minority firms and parents. The package also faced drops of personal exemptions, education credits, and child care deductions, along with other reliefs, as talks narrowed the scope of the measure.
