(CNSNews.com) – House
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has all but killed a proposal by senior
House Democrats to levy a tax on nearly all Americans to pay for the
Afghanistan war.
Pelosi, speaking at her weekly press briefing Thursday on Capitol Hill,
said she was “not in support” of the war surtax idea – adding that when
Obama requests more funding for the war in Afghanistan, then Democrats
will decide how to pay for it.
