Kennedy tax plan aims shifts in deductions and rates
President Kennedy proposes tax changes that would cut taxes for most Americans and boost some, while about 6.5 million would switch from itemizing to standard deduction. The plan would take effect later and require congressional approval, with many low and middle earners seeing tax relief and others, especially modest earners in oil or real estate, facing potential increases. A married man with two children earning 5000 could drop deductions from 1100 to 850, yet overall tax would fall due to broader cuts.
