Mr. Speaker, I thank my amazing, good friend, chair of the House Ways and Means Committee, Jason Smith, for his leadership, and Ranking Member Neal, who has always shown his support for the American people. It is an honor to sit on a committee that can come together with bipartisan legislation like this. H.R. 6506 is a commonsense bill that will help taxpayers and the courts. The bill passed 41-0 in the Ways and Means Committee, showing bipartisan support for protecting the due process rights of taxpayers. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to support this bill and pass this bill into law, and I yield back the balance of my time.
