A non-registered version of the story: House votes to extend tax on wealthy estates
Here is the roll call: Permanent Estate Tax Relief for Families, Farmers, and Small Businesses Act of 2009
Dem = 225 | Rep = 200; 26 Dems crossed to Nay; No Republicans voted Yea.
Note how the name calls out “tax relief” for farmers and small businesses, because this keeps the repeal of the tax for people under 3.5 million.
Good Republicans.
We need to remember that there is a difference and a big one.
