The Obama tax plan to eliminate taxes on families earning $250K or less was defeated
by a Senate "cloture" vote on the Baucus Amendment of: YES: 53 NO 36.
In effect, 60 votes were needed to avoid fillibuster.

The next vote on taxes (today) will be on the Schumer Amendment that eliminates taxes on families earning $1M or less.
