Tax Cuts. Senate amendments to H. R. 586 would make permanent the cuts in last year’s $1.35 trillion, 10-year tax reduction package, scheduled to expire in 2010. It would make permanent last year’s reductions in income tax rates, relief of the marriage penalty, elimination of the estate tax, doubling of the child tax credit, and expansion of pension and education savings provisions.
The House moved to concur with the Senate amendments to H.R. 586 on April 18, 2002 by a vote of 229 to 198 (Roll Call 103). We have assigned pluses to the yeas.
