Bush tax plan leaves many poor families behind
Samita Wright, a Hempstead nurse's aide with two children, likely would not benefit from Bush's proposed tax plan. The plan doubles the child tax credit to 1000 and expands eligibility, yet many low income families pay payroll taxes and receive little or no relief. Critics note three quarters pay more payroll taxes than income taxes, and many families with children receive nothing. Wright worries about overdue rent as she questions the plan's fairness.
