Tax Fairness Bill Passes Senate Committee Today!

The House Democrats’ Tax Fairness Bill passed out of Senate Committee today unanimously. There was no real opposition expressed or amendments offered – except there was one amendment of a procedural/technical nature (All the commas in all the right places, and all that.)

There was talk of how the bill passed the House unanimously, and let’s get this on through. Seems like everyone was always for tax reform and fairness, and at last everyone else finally came around to that position.

There is a possibility that the bill would come to the Senate floor tomorrow. My best source suspects it will.

However, because of the amendment, the bill will have to go back to the House to be passed in amended form if it passes the Senate.
