In closing, I would just echo as we started. I thank my colleague from California (Ms. Judy Chu) for her efforts on this issue. I thank our chairman, Mr. Neal, who has artfully indicated his words on the Record in regard to this issue. Madam Speaker, what I would encourage Members to do is to consider passage of this legislation--I know I personally will be supporting this legislation--to make sure that our Tax Code is reflective of the law of the land as it has been declared by the Supreme Court. We recognize the administrative problems that have been raised through the hearing process and the colloquy with the chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, and we hope that those issues can be administratively resolved. Madam Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time. {time} 1700
