“When someone characterizes a bipartisan Finance Committee proposal as something 'right out of Nazi Germany,' I'm going to be disturbed. Tax-motivated expatriation activities are something that troubles me. All you have to do is look at the infamous case of Marc Rich. You will recall Mr. Rich's case came to light in the rush of pardon applications during the waning hours of the Clinton Administration. Mr. Rich reportedly left the U.S. to avoid U.S. taxation and sought a pardon with respect to criminal indictments on, among other things, criminal tax charges. Mr. President, there is a major principle at stake here.”
