On the recordJune 29, 2001
As someone who comes from the largest State in the Union, on the cutting edge of high tech, making the R&D--or R&E sometimes called--tax credit permanent has been a priority of mine for a long time. Will my friend tell me, if this is such an important priority to those who, in fact, had the majority at the time the tax bill was written, namely, the Republicans, and the President certainly was working at that time with Senator Grassley, could they not have put the extension of the R&D tax credit into the big tax bill that was brought to this Chamber?
