Reagan presses tax cut as Dems resist
President Reagan urged Americans to back his three year 25 percent tax cut plan in a nationally broadcast address. Democrats questioned who benefits and argued the Ways and Means bill targets higher earners while offering limited relief for those under 50 000. Reagan defended social security protections and accused Dem leadership of political gamesmanship as opposition leaders urged targeted relief for middle class Americans.
