Don Nickles: “I will tell my friend and colleague, if the majority leader is willing to take up the House-passed tax bill, I will work…”

On the recordJanuary 24, 2002
I will tell my friend and colleague, if the majority leader is willing to take up the House-passed tax bill, I will work with him to come up with a limited number of amendments and see if we can't get that passed in the next couple of days. So if he will modify his request, and instead of using the bill he introduced, to make that the House-passed tax bill, I will work with him to come up with an agreement to limit the amendments and try to get it passed in a very expedited fashion.
