First Senate vote expected on Obama-GOP tax deal,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
I think we're going to have a vote on the Senate bill,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],marlboro red cigarettes, with possible changes," the Maryland Democrat said Monday during a discussion at the National Press Club. "We may have it with amendments,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], we'll see what the process is."
The No. 2 Senate Democrat,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],Securing New Year's Eve in Times Square, Dick Durbin of Illinois, said a "good cross-section" of senators in his party are ready to accept the deal.
Monday's vote is expected to lead to passage in the Senate Tuesday or Wednesday. The bill would then go to the House.
The legislation would avert a Jan. 1 increase in income taxes for nearly all Americans, including middle and high earners. The package also would renew a program of jobless benefits for the long-term unemployed and put in place a one-year cut in Social Security taxes.
A pair of polls released Monday showed the public supports the tax cut compromise by more than a 2-1 margin.
