“one significant thing we could do to provide genuine relief to Americans is to address the tax situation facing remote and mobile workers, like the medical professionals who travel from other States to help during the COVID crisis who now may be facing a surprise big, fat tax bill.

I would ask that we adopt the amendment. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Ohio.”
