Ron Wyden: “My friend Senator Thune and I are on the floor this afternoon to speak together about the Internet Tax Freedom Act.…”

On the recordDecember 15, 2014
My friend Senator Thune and I are on the floor this afternoon to speak together about the Internet Tax Freedom Act. Before that, I wish to spend a few minutes discussing Senator Rockefeller and his extraordinary accomplishments. I know that Senator Thune, after he and I have spoken about the Internet Tax Freedom Act, will make some additional remarks. I commend the work of Senator Thune on charitable contributions. He and I have led the effort to protect charitable donations. Neither of us consider charity efforts as some kind of tax loophole. We consider them a lifeline for the American people. So I look forward to the remarks of the Senator from South Dakota on several issues.
