House approves estate tax repeal and rate cuts in 2001 plan
The House passes a plan to repeal the estate tax gradually by 2010 and reduce all other rates. Only about 2 percent of deceased estates pay tax this year, with exemptions expanding and broad support from Democrats and Republicans. Gov. Bush backs the move, saying the tax harms small farms and minority entrepreneurs. Clinton supports a more modest option.
