Senator Grams and Senator Hutchinson will be introducing legislation dealing with the $500 tax credit per child. I compliment them on this legislation. I am happy to cosponsor it with them. It is outstanding legislation that will restore individual families the opportunity to keep more of their own money. I might mention that the definition of 'child' in the legislation which we are introducing includes children up to age 18 in contrast to that introduced by the President which is up to age 12, a big difference. It is a very profamily, very positive protaxpayer piece of legislation of which I am very happy to cosponsor. And I compliment my colleagues from Minnesota and Arkansas for their leadership on this issue.
