To clarify, I ask unanimous consent that all Members may have 5 legislative days to revise and extend their remarks and include extraneous material on H.R. 1105, the Death Tax Repeal Act of 2015. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection…

This motion is what people sort of hate about Washington. We say we stand for fairness for taxpayers in sales tax States but only for a few more months. We say we don't want to discriminate between you and people who are in income tax…
