Estate Tax Vote Could Be Tonight: OMBW Letter Opposes Bill
by Adam Hughes*, 8/3/2006
In advance of the vote on the "trifecta" estate tax bill in the Senate, which rumors say could be as early as tonight, OMB Watch
sent a letter in strong opposition
to the bill to the full Senate.
Although the vote was originally slated for tomorrow (Friday) morning, there are rumors from the Hill that Sen. Reid (D-NV) may agree to move
the vote up to this evening. This is a good sign as it probably indicates Reid is confident he has the votes to sustain a filibuster of the
bill.
Stay tuned for more updates as they become available.
