Here's bow area member* of Congress
were recorded on major roll call
vote* in tbe closing days of tbe First
Session of tbe 98th Congress.
HOUSE
RAISING TAXES - By a vote of 204
let and 214 against, tbe House refused
to debate a bill (HR 4170) to raise an
additional 18 billion in 1984 tax revenue.
Congress thus ended tbe year having
roieged on its pledge in its budget blueprint
to trim tbe $200 billion annual
deficit by raising $12 billion this fiscal
year in the new taxes. It legislated no
new taxes.
Nor did Congress, in the session just
ended, obey any other key part of its
.self-imposed budget mandate for $85
billion in deficit reductions during fiscal
1984-86. House and Senate leaders
said they will try again next year.
Tbe tax bill lulled by this vote drew
Its most vocal opposition fromlawmakers
unhappy with a cap on tbe
volume of tax-exempt "industrial development
bonds" that state and local
agencies could issue to private developer*.
Democrats voted 191-65 in favor of
debating the bill. Republicans voted 13-
149 against debate. Republicans opposed.
in part, tbe bill's increase in certain
Medicaid benefits and its softening
of a scheduled cut in upper-bracket
personal income tax rates.
