GOP senators
seek tax increases
WASHINGTON
Senate Republicans intend to
seek between $50 billion and
$70 billion in tax increases over
the next three years as part of
their attempt to cut budget
deficits by $115 billion, sources
said Monday
The sources disclosed the
tentative target as Senate
Finance Chairman Bob Dole,
R-Kan., confirmed that his panel
would begin drafting a bill to
raise taxes early next year
Dole predicted that Congress
would enact the increases, but
he spelled out few details, and
did not mention how much the
committee’s Republican majori
ty hoped to raise with its
legislation
But sources have reported
that administration and
congressional officials have
drawn up a lengthy list of op
tions, including higher excise
taxes on alcohol, tobacco and
gasoline, an import fee on crude
oil and disallowing tax deduc
tions on consumer debt interest,
except for home mortgages and
car loans
Dole said he hoped hearings
would start on the bill before
Congress adjourns for the year.
Senate Republican Leader
Howard Baker of Tennessee
and others said, however, that
most of the effect would be felt
in the 1983 and 1984 fiscal
years.
