David McKinley actually said...

if we are going to have exports, we ought to at least tax it or get some kind of fee on that export. And all I can say is, with all due respect to those that want to tax our exports, that will require a Constitutional amendment because there is a prohibition under Article 1, Section 9, paragraph 5 in the Constitution that says no tax or duty shall be laid on articles exported from any state.
