The Sequesteration Transparency Act of 2012
1. Amendment Offered by Mr. Van Hollen. This amendment proposed replacing the $1.2 trillion sequester with an increase in taxes on domestic oil companies, U.S. businesses with international operations, and individuals with annual income greater than $1,000,000. The amendment proposes to reduce spending by eliminating unspecified waste and duplicative programs; eliminating direct payments to farmers; reforming the Federal Flood Insurance Program; and selling unspecified federal property. The amendment also proposes to increase spending on education, science, infrastructure, and the Internal Revenue Service to close the “tax gap.”
