Loosen First Shingle On Tax Shelters
Washington AP A House Ways and Means Committee plan would expand the minimum tax to curb tax avoidance by wealthy filers. The measure, approved 25 to 8, would raise the rate to 14 percent and cut the exemption from 30,000 to 20,000, with the deduction phased out as tax preference income rises. It would halve deduction of regular taxes paid and add itemized deductions above 70 percent of adjusted gross income to the tax preference list. A rival proposal was rejected 27 to 8.
