On the recordSeptember 24, 2021
--including things like that are in this bill. There is a tax on natural gas, which every family in America that uses natural gas to heat their homes in winter or cool their homes in summer would have to pay. I know that President Biden had committed that nobody making under $400,000 would pay any new amount in taxes. Clearly, that provision of the bill would violate President Biden's pledge. I am not sure if the gentleman anticipates new taxes like that being removed from the bill so that the President's pledge would not be violated. If you have any insight on that, I would be happy to yield.
