A 14 member Senate group led by Edward Kennedy accuses the Finance Committee of favoring the rich as they press to amend a 1706 page tax bill. They seek to curb targeted benefits while extending the personal credit and income tax cuts enacted last year, arguing the plan would primarily aid wealthier taxpayers. The panel plans a Tuesday vote as debate looms.
