Whereas the Constitution and laws of the United States, and 
any actions pursuant thereto, must adhere to funda-
mental and common sense principles of law; 
Whereas one of the Framers of the Constitution, James 
Madison, declared in the 10th essay of the Federalist Pa-
pers that ‘‘[n]o man is allowed to be a judge in his own 
cause, because his interest would certainly bias his judg-
ment, and, not improbably, corrupt his integrity’’; 
Whereas another Framer of the Constitution, Alexander 
Hamilton, wrote in the 74th essay of the Federalist Pa-
pers that the pardon power exists as a matter of ‘‘hu-
manity and good policy’’, and that the President must re-
flect on ‘‘the fate of a fellow-creature depended on his 
sole fiat’’, which clearly suggests that the President is the 
grantor of pardons to another, and exercises this power 
to the benefit of another and not to the benefit of him-
self; 
Whereas understanding the fundamental rules of law, no 
President in the history of the United States has ever at-
tempted to pardon himself; 
Whereas the executive branch, through the Department of 
Justice Office of Legal Counsel, itself opined in an Au-
gust 5, 1974, legal opinion that the Executive, the Presi-
dent, cannot pardon himself; 
Whereas when faced with the prospect of criminal prosecu-
tion, President Richard Nixon appeared to acknowledge 
the limitations of the President’s pardon power as ex-
pressed in the August 5, 1974, Department of Justice 
Office of Legal Counsel memorandum when he resigned 
without attempting to act contrary to the memorandum;

Whereas if a President were to pardon himself, such an ac-
tion would directly and inherently violate the common 
law, as well as the President’s duty under article II, sec-
tion 3 of the Constitution to take care that the laws be 
faithfully executed; 
Whereas no reasonable rationale exist for the Framers of the 
Constitution to have intended to bestow upon the Presi-
dent the power to exempt himself from accountability to 
the law; and 
Whereas the rule of law is meaningless if any person or enti-
ty, including the President, is beyond the law’s reach: 
Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate 
concurring), That it is the sense of Congress that the 
President does not have the authority under the Constitu-
tion to grant himself reprieve or pardon for offenses 
against the United States.

economy standards, if fully implemented through model 
year 2025, will— 
(1) reduce American consumption of oil by 
2,400,000 barrels per day; 
(2) save American consumers $130,000,000,000 at 
the pump by 2030; and 
(3) reduce GHG emissions by 470,000,000 metric

Whereas America’s light-duty vehicle GHG emissions and fuel

A BILL
To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 with respect
to the treatment of crops destroyed by casualty.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. TREATMENT OF CROPS DESTROYED BY CAS-
UALTY.
(a) GENERAL RULE.—Paragraph (2) of section

ing new subparagraphs:
‘‘(A) IN GENERAL.—If plants bearing an
edible crop for human consumption were lost or
damaged (while in the hands of the taxpayer)
by reason of freezing temperatures, disease,
drought, pests, or casualty and the taxpayer re-
plants plants bearing the same type of crop
(whether on the same parcel of land on which
such lost or damaged plants were located or any
other parcel of land of the same acreage in the
United States), this section and section 263
shall not apply to—
‘‘(i) the costs of the taxpayer of such
replanting (other than special replanting

‘‘(ii) 80 percent of the taxpayer’s spe-
cial replanting costs of such replanting,

(c) REPORTS BY STATE COMMITTEES.—Section 304
of the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 (2 U.S.C.
434), as amended by subsection (a), is amended by adding
at the end the following new subsection:
‘‘(e) FILING OF STATE REPORTS.—In lieu of any re-
port required to be filed by this Act, the Commission may
allow a State committee of a political party to file with
the Commission a report required to be filed under State
law if the Commission determines such reports contain
substantially the same information.’’.
(d) OTHER REPORTING REQUIREMENTS.—
(1) 
AUTHORIZED

304(b)(4) of the Federal Election Campaign Act of
1971 (2 U.S.C. 434(b)(4)) is amended—

paragraph (I); and

tee, disbursements for the primary election, the
‘‘(i) plants (including qualified addi-
tional plants) and supporting structures,
‘‘(ii) replacing irrigation and drainage
systems destroyed during removal of the
lost or damaged plants, and
‘‘(iii) land preparation and fumiga-
tion.
For purposes of the preceding sentence, the
term ‘qualified additional plants’ means plants
(other than replacement plants) which bear the
same type of crop as the lost or damaged plants
referred to in subparagraph (A) and which are
planted on the same parcel of land as the re-
placement plants.
‘‘(C) PREPRODUCTIVE
COSTS.—For pur-
poses of this subsection, the term ‘preproductive
costs’ 
means 
costs 
incurred 
during 
the
preproductive period which are attributable
to—
‘‘(i) the cultivation, maintenance, and
development of the replantings,
‘‘(ii) the administration of the activi-
ties referred to in clause (i), and
‘‘(iii) interest on financing such activi-
ties.
Such term shall not include special replanting
costs.
‘‘(D) EXCLUSION
OF
NONREPLACEMENT
ASSETS.—In no event shall subparagraph (A)
apply to costs incurred for any asset which is
not substantially equivalent for commercial pur-
poses to an asset used on the parcel of land on
which the lost or damaged plants were located.
‘‘(E) LOSS LIMITATION RULE.—Any costs
otherwise eligible for the treatment under sub-
paragraph (A) with respect to any parcel shall
be reduced by the deduction (if any) allowed to
the taxpayer under section 165 which relates to
the most recent prior loss or damage to plants
located on such parcel.
‘‘(F) 
COORDINATION
WITH
ELECTION
UNDER PARAGRAPH (3).—The provisions of this
paragraph shall apply notwithstanding that an
election is made under paragraph (3).’’
(b) CONFORMING
AMENDMENT.—Section 165 of
such Code is amended by redesignating subsection (m) as
subsection (n) and by inserting after subsection (l) the fol-
lowing new subsection:
‘‘(m) LOSSES TO WHICH SECTION 263A(d)(2) DE-
DUCTIONS ARE TAKEN.—No deduction shall be allowed
under this section with respect to any loss for which the
costs 
of 
replanting 
are 
deducted 
under

tion shall apply to costs incurred after December 31,
