Senate minority leader Harry Reid, a Democrat, asks for another tax hike this morning: "Democrats believe we should replace this harsh austerity with a balanced approach that targets wasteful spending and tax loopholes," said Harry Reid, "and ask the wealthiest among us to contribute a little more to reduce the deficit." Reid asking for more taxes comes about a month after getting $617 billion in tax increases in the fiscal cliff deal. The Weekly Standard ArchivesBrowse 15 Years of the Weekly Standard
