Sacrosanct tax breaks,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], including deductions on mortgage interest,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], remain on the table just weeks before the deficit commission issues recommendations on policies to pare back with the aim of balancing the budget by 2015.
At stake,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in addition to the mortgage-interest deductions,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], are child tax credits and the ability of employees to pay their portion of their health-insurance tab with pretax dollars. Commission officials are expected to look at preserving these breaks but at a lower level,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], according to people familiar with the matter.
The officials are also looking at potential cuts to defense spending and a freeze on domestic discretionary spending. It is unclear if the 18-member panel will be able to reach an agreement on any of the items by a Dec. 1 deadline.
The tax benefits are hugely popular with the public but they have drawn the panel’s focus, in part because the White House has said these and other breaks cost the government about $1 trillion a year.
