Knutson bill eyed to cut estate gift taxes and tax due
The plan would raise exemptions to 1200 and slash estate and gift taxes, cutting revenues by about 200 million. Refunds would cover overpayments from enactment onward. A married couple with two children earning 2400 would owe nothing under the bill, while at 3000 income the tax falls from 190 to 80. Knutson says veto proof passage is required. President Truman earlier vetoed similar GOP tax cuts for inflation, debt payoff, and distribution reasons.
