On the recordApril 11, 2003

I will bump that up to a higher level between the majority leader, minority leader, and my friends. It was my understanding it needs to be done this week before we left. I have not consulted with Treasury--the Secretary of the Treasury in the last week or so. It was my understanding it really needed to pass before the April break. Maybe that is not the case. It may be my friend from Nevada and others have done their tax returns and paid such enormous taxes that we are in great shape. There is usually an April bump in revenues. That is my main concern. We don't like being in the situation where we are borrowing funds from civil service retirements and so on, which has happened in the past, and may be happening now. I will be happy to bump that up to the majority and minority leaders. It was my understanding it needed to be done prior to our leaving for this break.
