“I would like to begin by complimenting the Senator from Utah for presenting, I think, a very erudite discussion of the need for revisions in our tax policy and for his comments on the so-called Kemp Commission for the report which it released last week. I think he indicated the reasons why it is time to begin this debate. I will not repeat those. But he also showed his extensive knowledge in the area, and I appreciate the experience and the expertise which he brings to the Senate on this important topic and look forward to his continued counsel as we debate these issues during the next year and, hopefully, begin actual legislative work in fundamentally changing the Tax Code beginning in 1997. I thank the Senator from Utah.”
