President Bush weighs a major troop increase to Baghdad and western Anbar to quell insurgency and secure political progress. Proponents urge 9,000 to 32,000 more troops in two phases, while critics warn of higher casualties, prolonged conflict, and insufficient gains without a broader political, economic plan.

Senate Finance Leaders Urge End to AMT
Senate Finance Committee leaders Sen. Max Baucus and Sen. Charles Grassley backed repealing the alternative minimum tax arguing it hits middle class families. They did not specify revenue offsets for 2007 and warned costs could reach up to 1 trillion over 10 years. The AMT, created in 1969, removes some deductions and exemptions and has affected about 3.5 million households in 2005.
