Latham becomes granfather, pushes bill for families

March 29, 2001 By admin

Iowa Congressman Tom Latham added a new title to his resume this morning: “grandfather.” His son, Justin, and daughter-in-law, Linae, had a girl at 6:22 a-m. Latham says it’s appropriate the House today will debate a bill which aims to help married couples and families. In addition to eliminating the 14-hundred dollar “marriage tax penalty,” Latham says the legislation also offers parents more cash back in filing their income taxes. The child tax credit will be raised from 500 to one thousand dollars.
