Very briefly, this is one of those issues that really gets you angry. Both sides believe that people should play by the rules, and what you have are people not playing by the rules. People in my district, people in Ms. DeLauro's district and people in Mr. Crenshaw's district have to pay their taxes and pay their taxes where they live. They don't have the option of doing these kinds of things. For me, it is not only a legislative issue but a personal issue--the fact that these folks continue to get away with this kind of a situation. This is an issue that Ms. DeLauro has been working on for years. It is one that she deserves a lot of credit for, and that is why we have to thank her for it. I would like to take this opportunity to yield the balance of my time to the gentlewoman from Connecticut (Ms. DeLauro). The Acting CHAIR. Without objection, the gentlewoman from Connecticut will control the remaining time of the gentleman from New York. Ms. DeLAURO. Mr. Chairman, how much time remains? The Acting CHAIR. The gentlewoman from Connecticut has 5\1/4\ minutes remaining. Ms. DeLAURO. I thank the gentleman for yielding. Mr. Chairman, at this time, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Doggett).
