First Round Tax Action Urged by Snyder in 1930s Debate
Treasury Secretary Snyder called for prompt action on the administration's proposed ten billion first round tax increase while suggesting a second round could wait until next year. He argued the fiscal year would yield about seven billion in savings and outlined a plan including a three billion rise in individual income taxes, a three point one billion rise in corporate taxes, and a three point zero billion increase in excise taxes along with a four point four billion rise in capital gains taxes. He warned delaying tax measures could risk financial stability as the budget surplus dissipates.
