Ford to split proposals for action with tax cut priority
Rep. Al Ullman said Ford's economic and energy package will be divided into parcels with an immediate tax cut as top priority. Senate leader Hugh Scott criticized the plan as too leisurely on energy. Ullman targets March 1 to report a tax cut totaling 15 to 17 billion dollars and aims to pass energy later. Udall, Scott, and Ullman support standby gasoline rationing authority if Ford proposes it.
