Ford Plan Cuts Taxes for Low and Middle Incomes Next Year
President Ford proposes tax reductions favoring low and middle income taxpayers to offset higher energy costs. Families of four earning 12 5k to 15k would break even, saving about 250 dollars in taxes. The greatest gain, 349 dollars, applies to those around 10k income, while higher earners see smaller benefits. An 80 dollar payment would go to adults over 18 with no tax liability to offset energy costs.

It clarifies who controls delegate selection and upholds conventions as key to the presidential nominating process. The decision erased contempt charges against 59 Illinois delegates linked to the 1972 McGovern nomination. Justice Brennan stressed conventions outweigh state election safeguards.
