I believe the National Governors Association and the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators both endorsed the Senate version of this language over the House version because, among other things, the Senate version provided the…
If there were an Internet transaction that was selling a good within a State that had a sales tax, just like a mail order product, wouldn't they be responsible for the applicable sales taxes in those States?
Would they have to pay property taxes in those States where they owned property and operated facilities?
The Senator from Virginia is talking about the kind of Internet access-specific taxes that the opponents of this bill would like to apply. There are a number of States that are taxing Internet access today. There are a handful of others…
If the Senator will yield slightly further, that is precisely the point I was making--that ethanol will not be subject to excise taxes. It will require taking money from the general fund to pay for this tax and putting it into the trust…
Gasoline is subject to a Federal excise tax of 18.3 cents per gallon. The Senator's description suggests that ethanol will now be taxed at 18.3 cents a gallon as well and that revenue will go into the highway trust fund.
Yesterday, America was besieged by images of tragedy and horror as we witnessed an attack on the very heart of the freedom which we hold so dear. Today, the Nation and the world are besieged by emotion: disbelief, anger, and enormous…
I am not arguing that that is a Department of Interior map. I am asking you if the pink shaded area is 2,000 acres. I think, given the scale of that map, the answer is clearly no. The pink shaded area probably represents at least half a…
Well, there are two reasons. One, because the checks are going to go out in a staggered format. They are going to go out in July, they are going to go out in August, and they are going to go out in September. The first people that are…
I think it serves the taxpayer well to have advance information. From the IRS's standpoint, the processing of checks may well be done differently than the processing of a notice like this. Why not give the taxpayer the information ahead of…
To address the gentleman's first point, what I said was there is information about how it is calculated, because while the headline in the Washington Post or the New York Times may be $300 a person, $600 a person, that is not technically…
I know what the difference is. What is the normal justification for collecting so much more in taxes than we spend in government?
I want to address the point that somehow the new farm policy is to buy and sell to manipulate the price of the commodity sugar in the market. I think that is a very dangerous precedent to set. We should not be manipulating prices in the…
That is a direct transfer of money from the American consumers to foreign corporations.
First, the concern of the gentlewoman about gas prices. I think everyone shares that concern. We have had a debate here on the floor about gas prices and what might be done about the situation, but I want to reaffirm that nothing in this…
It does not include mandatories. We passed that bill unanimously in the House; it passed unanimously in the Senate. It will be signed by the President into law. It was initiated by the Speaker of this House, and it does not need to be…
I would enter in a copy of the agreement that the town has with the State, and also the language of the regulations which says: The terms 'State' as used herein means the State which is party to this agreement and the political subdivision…
It is true, however, that even if the Park Service was to grant such a waiver, they would still have to replace the land with a transfer under the Land and Water Conservation requirements.
We wish to make it clear at this time that the converted Land and Water Conservation Fund land, once approved for conversion, will not be used for any special purpose. It is the town's intention to develop the land as need arises for…
The gentleman's point that the ATP funding is going to the private sector and companies that already exist emphasizes exactly the point that those of us that oppose the program are trying to make, and that, is the beneficiaries or private…
