111TH CONGRESS 
2D SESSION 
H. R. 4154 
AN ACT 
To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to 
repeal the new carryover basis rules in order to 
prevent tax increases and the imposition of com-
pliance burdens on many more estates than 
would benefit from repeal, to retain the estate 
tax with a $3,500,000 exemption, to reinstitute 
and update the Pay-As-You-Go requirement of 
budget neutrality on new tax and mandatory 
spending legislation, enforced by the threat of 
annual, automatic sequestration, and for other 
purposes.
