On the recordApril 12, 1994
there will be a taxpayers' tea party on April 15, this Friday, in Boston. It will partly be in honor of a new book called ``Taxpayers Tea Party'' by one of my constituents, Sharon Cooper, and Chuck Asay of the Colorado Springs Newspaper. It has an introduction by Rush Limbaugh. I want to recommend ``Taxpayers' Tea Party'' to all my colleagues, because it is about term limits in a lot shorter timeframe. It is essentially a story about people who are mad over last year's tax increase and decided to get even by spending an amount equal to the tax increase as an independent expenditure against folks who voted to raise their taxes. I think all of my colleagues will find ``Taxpayers' Tea Party'' an interesting book. I think this Friday across the country as people pay their taxes, they will be thinking about a taxpayers' tea party, and a number of us will be in Boston with Sharon Cooper talking about the concept of a taxpayers' tea party.

I have always said that 'build back poorer' would be a much more accurate title for that bill.

They didn`t allow anybody on the Trump side into Mar-a-Lago. So we have no idea whether or not they planted evidence.
