Republicans Call for Estate Tax Legislation Support

Majority Leader Harry Reid says he would like to see an initial vote on a jobs package on February 8th — likely a procedural vote — and Senate passage before members leave town for the Presidents Day recess on February. 12. But that depends on Republican cooperation, since Democrats have lost their filibuster-proof 60 votes.
