New Tax Curbs Are Approved on Itemized Deductions
The House Ways and Means Committee approved a plan to raise about 500 million dollars by curbing itemized deductions for individuals. Deductions for state and local taxes on gasoline, autos, licenses, cigarettes, alcohol, and other beverages would be disallowed, while general sales, property, and income taxes would remain deductible. The changes would take effect January 1 next year, not applying to taxes paid this year or returns filed next spring. This forms part of a compromise to Kennedy tax proposals, marking the largest revenue measure approved by the committee.
