CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that

Whereas on June 7, 2001, President Bush signed into law

largest tax relief since 1981;

come tax reductions, reduction of the marriage penalty,
elimination of the death tax, tax rebate checks, doubling
of the per-child tax credit, increasing tax-free contribu-
