Scope and Contents

In this letter, Dale Duggins expresses concern about the impact of President Ford's tax cut proposal and a potential tax on gasoline on middle and lower income families. He argues that high gasoline taxes will disproportionately affect these groups by making it difficult to commute to work and afford vacations. Duggins also suggests lowering the Social Security retirement age and stabilizing food prices to help alleviate economic challenges. He urges Congressman Jim Jones to consider these issues and take action to address them.
