Tax Reform Bill May Curb Unions Political Action
Senate debates a tax reform bill facing a pivotal amendment by Sen. Paul Fannin to strip tax exempt status from unions using dues for political activity. The measure, opposed by AFL-CIO, would alter funding and political spending and prompt tough floor battles ahead of a potential final vote. The package also includes changes to Social Security benefits, oil depletion allowances, and personal tax exemptions, with fiscal implications across 1970 to 1979.
