Budget talks halted as O’Neill stays firm on taxes
Washington AP The White House and Congress pause private budget negotiations while Reagan and Speaker O’Neill review progress. O’Neill insists any deal must alter last year’s three year personal income tax cut and opposes Social Security cuts as long as taxes remain unchanged. James Jones notes difficulty but no substantive agreement yet. House GOP Leader Michel says he is encouraged by renewed talks. O’Neill vows to balance the budget without hurting seniors.
