Gray backs Reagan tax reform with caveats in Southern Illinois

U S Rep Ken Gray praises Reagan tax reform aims as steps to cut the deficit and shift burden to corporations while opposing elimination of property tax exemptions for local homeowners. He supports fewer brackets, a minimum corporate tax, and targeted oil industry exemptions, aiming for relief to middle and low income earners and reform by October if spending is cut.

Reagan tax plan could boost Reagan finances

Washington AP report says the proposed tax overhaul would on average cut taxes by about 10.7 percent for those earning over 200,000. President Reagan and Nancy reported 1984 adjusted gross income of 440,657 with 147,826 paid in federal taxes. Treasury Secretary Baker cites 80 percent winners, 20 percent losers, and the plan’s broad benefit. Reagan notes he has not calculated his own savings but says the system is advantageous. He adds middle class savings would be smaller and they do not pay as much anyway.
