On the recordMarch 2, 2011
Democrats want to enact the repeal of the 1099 reporting requirements. We passed a bill in July of 2010 that didn't raise taxes on anyone. Instead, it closed loopholes that allowed for the exporting of U.S. jobs overseas. Guess what happened to that bill? Your side blocked it. The Republicans blocked it. That wasn't the only time Democrats did this responsibly. Recently, the Senate passed a bipartisan, deficit-neutral repeal of the onerous 1099 business reporting requirements. Let me make it clear: Democrats are ready to repeal 1099 reporting requirements, but we will not do it on the backs of hardworking middle class Americans.
