Roosevelt vetoes tax bill doubling social security levy
President Roosevelt vetoed a bill demanding doubling of the social security tax. He called the measure an extension of indefensible special privileges to favored groups and urged Congress to pass a simpler excise tax plan instead. The veto cited that the bill would raise about 3.1 billion dollars in revenue but cancel automatic social security receipts totaling around 1.1 billion and increase other taxes, costing the treasury and relief programs.
