I thank the chairman for yielding. This is a classic example of the IRS basically putting the American taxpayers in a nice little cul de sac. They would come in; you would have a process, and they would review something and so forth and so on. Then rather than moving you through where you could get a disposition, rather than moving you through to where you could get an answer, rather than moving you through so you knew that there was somebody unbiased that was looking at something, they essentially moved you into a cul de sac and just kind of let you walk around the neighborhood for a while and not particularly caring about the disposition of this. {time} 1430 I want to say, Mr. Speaker, these bills that we are discussing today, many of them were authored and have been highlighted and brainstormed by Dr. Charles Boustany, the former chairman of the Oversight Subcommittee. And now, on a bipartisan basis, folks have come together. So I want to congratulate Mr. Meehan for the procedure by which this has now been expedited and the expectation that people will be fairly considered and fairly reviewed and that they won't be stuck in a cul- de-sac with no way out.
