Business and labor urge Kennedy tax cuts to curb recession
Washington business and labor leaders pressed the Kennedy administration to cut taxes to prevent a recession. The U S Chamber of Commerce called for an across the board income tax cut, while AFL CIO urged immediate relief for low and middle income earners. The two groups clashed over tax policy with Chamber citing a 5.5 to 7.5 billion dollar yearly cost and AFL CIO warning against broad cuts. The administration planned a bill next year retroactive to January 1, 1963, to offset revenue loss by closing tax loopholes.
