I wish to say first that I appreciate all the work the members of the Small Business Committee have done, both Ranking Member Snowe and all the members of the committee, as well as the members of the Finance Committee who worked very hard to put a package together and the work that has come from the White House and Treasury to build a package that is paid for, fiscally responsible, and meaningful for small business in America. There are many important pieces of the package, but one of the most significant in this very tough time for small businesses, Mr. President, which you know because I am sure you hear from your small businesses in Delaware, is that they would like some tax relief, if possible.
