Tax Cut Plan Faces House Floor Amid Perot Refund Probe

A highlight is a provision that could grant a $15 million refund to H Ross Perot, part of a broader $335 million boost to high income investors. Perot denies any involvement and requests exclusion from benefits. A Republican effort to tie spending ceilings to the bill failed 9 to 5.
