Beer Tax Fight Rages In Senate As Revenue Bill Stalls
Washington May 25 A furious tax battle unfolds as Senators push beer tax plans to substitute for sales levies and postal increases. Senator Bingham urges a 2.76 percent beer tax to raise 376 million dollars while House rejection looms. The Senate trims truck tax from three to two percent, signaling a shift to House rates and a potential 15 million loss in revenue. Norris lashes out against agricultural riders and warns of ruin if farmers bear the burden, while Shipstead and Walsh push tariff and general sales tax proposals amid a broader revenue turmoil.
