O Neill backs $700 cap on tax cut in 1984 race
House Speaker Thomas P. O'Neill Jr and Democrats push a $700 ceiling on the 10 percent income tax cut for those earning $50 000 or more while guaranteeing full cut for 95 to 96 percent of taxpayers. The plan aims to boost federal revenues and frame the fairness issue ahead of the 1984 elections amid Reaganomics debates. The White House accuses Democrats of raising taxes for the average family, while O'Neill warns of confrontation or bipartisanship as the campaign heats up.
