House OKs Slash In Taxes Sends Bill To Senate
The House passed President Kennedy's 11 billion tax cut bill by 271 to 155, sending it to the Senate for approval. The measure would cut taxes by 100 to 200 dollars for most families, with larger benefits for higher earners, and faces uncertain prospects in the Senate. The vote reflected strong party lines, and supporters cited the tax cut as central to Kennedy's economic program and efforts to reduce unemployment through increased spending. Senate leadership signaled confidence in passage, with Byrd planning closed door briefings before any public hearings, potentially delaying action into October.
