Surtax retention urged beyond June 30
Treasury Secretary David Kennedy told the House Ways and Means Committee that the 10 percent income tax surcharge will likely need to be retained to maintain a proper budgetary posture. He warned that removing the surcharge would convert expected surpluses into deficits and discussed the administration’s plan to redefine the national debt ceiling at 300 billion, with critics labeling the move a fiscal fraud. Kennedy linked domestic fiscal policy to progress in international talks, stressing the need for Soviet cooperation in the Middle East and arms negotiations.
