On the recordMay 21, 1998
I am troubled by these games. I am troubled by people saying, oh, here is what the bill says and then to play games maybe late at night, Sunday night, Monday night, and have this bill written by the administration. This is not a Commerce Committee bill. This is an administration bill. I think it cries out for change, and the change should be this, I tell my colleagues. The change should be to call a tax a tax. Senator Lautenberg introduced a bill that said let's have a $1.50 tax. That is what the Finance Committee passed.
