WASHINGTON, Jan. 27 /U.S. Newswire/ -- The Children's Defense Fund Action Council today called on Members of Congress to support children and defeat the 2006 budget bill when it is voted on in the U.S. House of Representatives on February 1st.
Congress failed children miserably in 2005. But Members of Congress will have a final chance to do the right thing and vote for children when this morally obscene budget bill is brought before them again for a vote next week. Last year, Congress chose to protect the wealthiest among us at the expense of the most vulnerable among us: our children," said Children's Defense Fund (CDF) Action Council President Marian Wright Edelman.

SB 1424 and AB 2472 are essentially identical measures that would establish a Tax Court in California to hear income and sales tax appeals. AB 2480 would suspend the $50 penalty per non e-filed tax form for a period of one year. AB 1416 would extend the sunset of California's taxpayer privilege. SB 548 would allow the Franchise Tax Board to bring a trial de novo proceeding in superior court after the State Board of Equalization had ruled in a taxpayer's favor.

Last year, a California law took effect that allows 51 percent of parents with kids in an academically failing school to petition the district for a take over.
