Congress Begins Push to End Marriage Tax Penalty
Joan Beck argues for erasing the marriage penalty in the federal tax code. She notes 40 to 50 percent of married couples pay an extra 1300 to 1400 dollars yearly and cites 66 provisions that penalize marriage. Beck cites legislative efforts in the House and Senate and Clinton's stance, but warns of revenue costs and complexity while urging fair tax policy to strengthen families.
