Democrats outline tax plan aiding middle class workers
The House Ways and Means Committee finalized a Democratic tax plan offering a $200 wage earner credit, capital gains relief, and new economy measures. It totals about $90 billion in cuts over five years, funded by taxes on higher earners, with most workers eligible for the full credit. The plan reshapes rates, adds a $1 million plus surtax, preserves some Bush proposals, and includes home purchase and education deductions and mass transit tax-free benefits.

Evacuation Ordered For 6000 On Taal Volcano
Authorities began evacuating about 6000 residents living on Taal Volcano as long fissures and hundreds of small earthquakes raised fears of an imminent eruption. Scientists logged over 400 tremors since Friday on the 1026 foot peak located about 35 miles south of Manila. Taal is among the Philippines most violent active volcanoes and could echo Mount Pinatubos deadly eruption from June.
