Senate Vote Near On Tax Surcharge
Senate debate centers on extending a 5 percent income tax surcharge through June next year. Senator Mansfield, reluctant to support the extension, backs Byrd’s amendment to kill it while noting a six month continuation was assumed in the reform package. Senator Griffin aligns with maintaining the surcharge to back President Nixon's inflation program. A separate floor vote defeated James Allen's raise of personal exemption from 600 to 1200, with Republicans arguing the loss of 18 billion would bankrupt the country and invite a veto.
