AP report notes Senate Finance Committee member Sen. John J Williams says completing action on the 10 percent surtax extension by June 30 is unlikely. House delays, administration urging a race to the deadline, hearings planned, and possible spending ceiling and tax loophole measures could slow final action. Williams may attach a personal spending ceiling rider and press for closing tax loopholes.
