Nixon to Push Federal Help for Needy Property Taxpayers
Washington AP President Nixon will pursue federal relief for homeowners who pay local property taxes despite an advisory commission recommendation against its favored method. The panel rejected incentives to adopt circuit breaker tax policies and any direct federal program, while agreeing to study revenue sharing and education financing impacts. Cohen said Nixon remains concerned for poor and elderly homeowners, who sometimes pay 10 to 30 percent of income in property taxes. The commission urged states to retain primary responsibility for property tax relief and intrastate school-finance equalization.
