Congress Will Move On Tax Bill To Halve Half Billion
Congress prepares to draft a new tax bill with about 500 million dollars in the federal treasury. William R Green, chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, calls a meeting October 19 to begin drafting the measure for passage after the November session opens. Treasury balance shows a current surplus and estimated next year's surplus could push tax relief past the half billion mark, with potential increases from debt negotiations. The bill’s specifics remain unclear as both houses discuss options.
