Budget Reconciliation and How it May Help Pass the FAIRtax
from Chairman's Report · host The FAIRtax Guys
Some people believe that it will be extremely difficult to pass the FAIRtax in the Senate because normal Senate rules require 60 votes to end debate on a measure and bring it up for a vote. Therefore, a minority of just 41 Senators could block the FAIRtax in the Senate. However, in this week's Chairman's Report, Steve Hayes discusses a special Senate procedure called budget reconciliation under which the FAIRtax could pass with just 51 votes.
