Kennedy Urges Tax Cut Plan With Deductions Clamp
President Kennedy asked Congress to recapture about a fifth of his proposed 11 billion dollar tax cut for individuals by sharply limiting deductions. The plan would curb home mortgage interest, contributions, medical expenses and local taxes, with a 5 percent income floor for deductibility and a new 300 dollar minimum deduction for all. It aims to lower taxes across the board while boosting relief for low income groups and certain workers.
