Taxes shaping Senate debate on extension and spending links
The Senate battle over extending anti recession tax cuts continues with Ford conditionally backing any extension only with $1 of spending cuts for every $1 of tax relief. Democrats argue spending ceilings are tied to a scheduled 1977 budget, complicating consensus as Roth and Bellman push for a compromise. The Senate bill offers larger relief for lower incomes while the House favors the $10 000 to $20 000 bracket, and a separate tax credit for new home buyers was approved.

Top court to review Miranda impact on police questioning
The Supreme Court agreed to hear an Iowa murder case challenging the Miranda rule requiring police to inform suspects of rights including a lawyer, a paid attorney, and the right to remain silent.
