Pres. Obama's Speech on Fiscal Policy April 13th Will Be Aired in Early Afternoon at the George Wash. Univ
--WashPost's Lori Montgomery and Zachary A. Goldfarb: 'Obama will not blaze a fresh path ... Instead, he is expected to offer support for the [deficit] commission's work and a related effort underway in the Senate [Gang of 6] to develop a strategy for curbing borrowing. Obama will frame the approach as a responsible alternative to the 2012 plan unveiled last week by House Republicans.' http://wapo.st/hcGtGK
--L.A. Times lead story: "The president will propose raising income and Social Security taxes on the wealthy to cut red ink ... Obama will call for ... raising taxes on wealthier Americans and requiring them to pay more into Social Security ... Obama will offer some spending cuts, including trims to the Pentagon's budget, but his speech is likely to provide Americans with a vivid choice between higher taxes or fewer benefits."
