The tax plan agreed to by the GOP House-Senate tax conferees would give more than two-thirds of its tax cuts to the best-off tenth of all taxpayers, according to a preliminary analysis of the agreement released by Citizens for Tax Justice.  
 
Tom Campbell voted with the Republicans on August 5th, when it came to the House floor as a conference report on  h.r. 2488.  The bill passed with nearly all Republicans voting for it, and nearly all Democrats voting against it.  The vote was close:  221-206.
 
The CTJ analysis, which includes all the major elements of the agreement, found that under the House-Senate tax plan:
 

The 60 percent of taxpayers in the middle income quintile and below would receive less than 8 percent of the total tax cuts. Their average tax reduction would be only $138 a year.  The best-off tenth of all taxpayers would receive 69 percent of the tax reductions, and get an average annual tax cut of $7,600. 

The best-off one percent of taxpayers--those making more than $301,000-- would get an average tax reduction of more than $46,000 a year.
