Whales Scarce in Pacific Ocean During Greenpeace Watch

Senate rejects 10 percent personal income tax cut proposal
The Senate voted 63 to 23 against an amendment by Sen William Roth to lower the revenue floor by 11.4 billion for a possible 10 percent tax cut in next year’s budget. Muskie called the plan misguided as it would widen the deficit and hinder tax reform. Roth argued the cut would boost activity and relieve middle income taxpayers.
