GOP Leaders Promote 743 Billion Tax Cut Plan in Michigan
Senate Leader Trent Lott and Michigan figures gathered before 400 people to push a GOP tax cut proposal tied to a budget surplus. They argued 62 percent of the surplus should fund Social Security, with the rest funding a 10 percent income tax cut, lowering the 15 percent bracket to 13.5 and the top from 39.6 to 35.64 percent. A single filer earning 35 000 would save about 455 dollars and a 60 000 couple about 780 dollars.
