On the recordFebruary 11, 2014
I thank the Senator from Texas and my other colleagues who have participated in this colloquy. I hope we can speedily bring the Stop Targeting of Political Beliefs by the IRS Act to the floor. When the Senator from Texas talks about his constituents and what they endured at the hands of the IRS, how anybody can say there is nothing amiss there or there is nothing wrong, especially when somebody is asked, upon application for a 501(c)(4), to give up their Facebook posts and tweets and let the IRS review them to see if they are worthy of receiving such status, there is something wrong. I think Americans know that. I appreciate the support of my colleagues on this legislation and I appreciate the Senator from Kansas, my partner in this effort. I yield the floor, and I suggest the absence of a quorum. The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Schatz). The clerk will call the roll. The assistant legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
