Democrats Split Over Tax Revisions and Exemption Increases
House Democrats debated how to handle a Republican tax revision bill that would give up to two billion dollars in business cuts.

Republicans discuss delaying or opposing the move, with administration stance unclear. The committee aims to finish section-by-section action soon, with a final vote slated about a week later.
