OMB Watch - Circumstances Force Frist to Postpone Estate Tax Vote

OMB Watch - Circumstances Force Frist to Postpone Estate Tax Vote: "Circumstances Force Frist to Postpone Estate Tax Vote

lLte Monday evening, Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-TN) felt compelled by circumstances to postpone a vote on repeal of the estate tax, which he had scheduled to be the first item of business when Congress returned to Washington today. That it took Frist so long to postpone the vote typifies the misguided priorities of the entire movement for repeal of the estate tax -- an effort to reward the privileged few at the expense of millions of Americans who struggle to get by from day-to-day."
