Gramm launches new plan
to cut federal budget deficit
United Press International
DALLAS — Rep. Phil Gramm,
the Texas Democrat who helped
push Reagan Administration
budget cuts through Congress,
has compiled a new list of budget
balancing moves, a Dallas news
paper reported Wednesday.
As Congress returns from a
month-long hiatus, Gramm said
he is positioning himself in the
center of the controversy with a
$40 billion package of proposals to
trim the federal deficit, the Dallas
Morning News said.
“We re trying to come up with
$10 billion to $15 billion worth of
additional 1982 savings, not an
overall budget resolution,”
Gramm said. Gramm represents
the sixth district, which includes
Brazos County.
In addition to new budget cuts,
Gramm’s plan calls for raising in
come through several tax sources,
including taxes on unemployment
insurance payments.
Gramm worked with House
Republicans and the Reagan
administration to hammer out the
stringent budget resolution the
House approved in May.
He also played a central role in
pushing a $35 billion package of
budget cuts though the House in
July, which drew fire from House
Majority Leader Jim Wright of
Fort Worth and other Democratic
leaders.
Although the Administration
has predicted a federal deficit of
$42 billion, many analysts say it
may top $60 billion.
Most of Gramm’s current prop
osals would trim the deficit by
closing tax loopholes, raising fees
for using government projects
such as inland waterways and air
ports and cutting back on federal
credit programs.
