On the recordJune 25, 1997
I yield myself 1 minute, to say that tomorrow we will be debating the tax bill. As the bipartisan joint tax committee of Congress estimates, 76 percent of all the benefit goes to people who make less than $75,000, totally contrary to the facts that have been shouted out in the last 20 minutes. Ninety-two percent of the benefits go to people making under $100,000. We will be debating the tax bill tomorrow. It will be very, very clear who benefits. We will realize the people who benefit are the middle class in this country. Today we are debating a spending bill, a spending bill that allows spending to go up 3 percent a year, that allows Medicare to go up at 7 percent a year each year, not a cut, a significant increase.
