On the recordDecember 1, 2017
I intend to offer the following motion to H.R. 1, and I ask unanimous consent that it be printed in the Record. The motion is supported by Senators Cantwell, Van Hollen, Cardin, and Booker. There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in the Record, as follows: Motion to Commit With Instructions Mr. Menendez moves to commit the bill H.R. 1 to the Committee on Finance with instructions to report the same back to the Senate in 3 days, not counting any day on which the Senate is not in session, with changes that-- (1) are within the jurisdiction of such committee; and (2) would eliminate the repeal of the State and local tax deduction if State and local spending on investments in Medicaid and other health care, infrastructure, or services for children or seniors, education, or law enforcement is reduced or taxes on the middle class are increased.
