   U.S. President Barack Obama is renewing his call for Congress to approve tax reform legislation known as the "Buffett Rule."


  It is named after one of the world's richest men, investor 1 Warren Buffett, who says it is not fair that he pays a lower tax than his secretary.
  During his weekly address Saturday, the president urged Congress to approve the legislation during a planned vote next week.
  Under the Buffett Rule, anyone earning more than $1 million would pay at least the same percentage of income taxes as middle income wage earners.  The president says families earning less than $250,000 per year - 98 percent of American families - should experience no increase in their tax rate.
  Obama rejects claims by critics that the Buffett Rule impedes 2 job growth.
  In the Republican address, Congressman 3 Fred Upton charged the Obama administration's energy policies have increased the country's dependence 4 on foreign oil with the rejection 5 of a pipeline 6 project that would run from Canada to the U.S.
  Upton urged the administration to consider his party's American Energy Initiative that aims to cut gas prices and create jobs.
