ADAM PUTNAM: “I rise to make two clarifications. One, to my friend from…”

On the recordMay 17, 2006

I rise to make two clarifications. One, to my friend from Massachusetts, I would clarify that the rule he seeks to repeal is commonly known as the Gephardt rule. Secondarily, I would clarify the clarification made by my friend Mr. Spratt that on page 51, lines 13 through 19 of the legislation known as the Spratt amendment, there is tax relief that is provided; the additional revenue loss is offset such as through the recovery of a portion of unpaid revenue, commonly known as the tax gap, which we referred to. So that is a portion of their amendment. Mr. McGOVERN. Mr. Speaker, will the gentleman yield?

I remind the gentleman again that the House had an opportunity to pass a minimum wage bill, and we passed it over the objections of the other side of the aisle. We passed it.

You will see a stifling new increase of taxes, both on families and on small businesses. And there will be no one at the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue with a veto stamp that is Obama, Pelosi and Reid. And all that that entails.
