Well, President Obama wants to extend the Bush Tax Cuts except for the people with income of more than $250,000. The Republicans want to extend them for everybody. Big fignt, right? So the President asks the Senate to vote quickly on his idea. Wait, the Senate Majority Leader, a Democrat, decides not to vote on anything right now. So who is fighting who? Here is an article from the Associated Press through Fox News:

I do think that at least the middle class tax cut will get passed. The people over $250,000 will probably get extended too, but that is less clear.
Any questions, call or email me below and we can discuss it.
