45 Million US Households To Get Permanent Tax Cut
Carter era tax reform moves through House Ways and Means Committee with a plan for $60 rebates and permanent tax cuts affecting about 446 million households. The bill, approved 26 to 8, would start $50 rebate checks in May or June for many under 75 000, and implement a flat standard deduction, shifting withholding after May 1. It also expands credits, reduces marriage penalty, and offers a jobs credit, with targeted payments for Social Security and other groups.
