Mike Levin: “I ask these questions to reflect my concern that any tax bill produced pursuant to the budget agreement and this budget…”

On the recordMay 23, 1997
I ask these questions to reflect my concern that any tax bill produced pursuant to the budget agreement and this budget resolution not set in motion tax policies which will create large deficits in the next decade. Also, I strongly believe we must carefully study the effect of any tax provisions which we include in the revenue reconciliation legislation to assure that it is fair, and not weighted to benefit principally those who need it least.
