Majority Republicans did their best to minimize the bill’s tax increases, just as they abandoned their demand from earlier in the day to add spending cuts to the package. “By making Republican tax cuts permanent, we are one step closer to comprehensive tax reform that will help strengthen our economy and create more and higher pay- checks for American workers,” said Rep. Dave Camp of Michigan, chairman of the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee. He urged a vote for passage to “get us one step closer to tax reform in 2013” as well as attempts to control spending. The bill would also prevent an expiration of extended unemployment benefits for an estimated two million jobless, block a 27 percent cut in fees for doctors who treat Medicare patients, stop a $900 pay increase for lawmakers from taking effect in March and head off a threatened spike in milk prices. It would stop $24 billion in across-the-board spending cuts set to take effect over the next two months, although only about half of that total would be offset with savings elsewhere in the budget. The economic as well as political stakes were considerable. Associated Press Economists have warned that Speaker of the House John Boehner, R-Ohio, center right, and House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., center left, walk down stairs to a second without action by Congress, the Republican conference meeting Tuesday at the Capitol in Washington to discuss the fiscal cliff bill. tax increases and spending cuts that technically took effect with cans abandoned demands for The non-partisan Congressional items, the extension of unemployment programs set to expire in the turn of the new year at mid- changes and agreed to a simple Budget Office said the measure ment benefits costs $30 billion, and late March, Republicans have night could send the economy into yes-or-no vote on the Senate- would add nearly $4 trillion over is not offset by savings elsewhere. made it clear they intend to use recession. passed bill. a decade to federal deficits, a cal- Others said unhappiness over those events as leverage to win Even with enactment of the leg- They feared that otherwise the culation that assumed taxes would spending outweighed fears the fi- savings from Medicare and other islation, taxes are on the rise for Senate would refuse to consider otherwise have risen on taxpayers nancial markets would plunge on government benefit programs. millions. any alterations, sending the bill at all income levels.
