BORDER INSPECTION AREAS AT THE UNITED STATES-
CANADA BORDER.
(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The increased security and safety concerns that
developed in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks in the
United States on September 11, 2001, need to be addressed.
(2) One concern that has come to light is the vulnerability
of the international bridges and tunnels along the United
States borders.
(3) It is necessary to ensure that potentially dangerous
vehicles are inspected prior to crossing these bridges and
tunnels; however, currently these vehicles are not inspected
until after they have crossed into the United States.
(4) Establishing Integrated Border Inspection Areas (IBIAs)
would address these concerns by inspecting vehicles before
they gained access to the infrastructure of international
bridges and tunnels joining the United States and Canada.
(b) Creation of Integrated Border Inspection Areas.--
(1) In general.--The Commissioner of the Customs Service,
in consultation with the Canadian Customs and Revenue Agency
(CCRA), shall seek to establish Integrated Border Inspection
Areas (IBIAs), such as areas on either side of the United
States-Canada border, in which United States Customs officers
can inspect vehicles entering the United States from Canada
before they enter the United States, or Canadian Customs
officers can inspect vehicles entering Canada from the United
States before they enter Canada. Such inspections may
include, where appropriate, employment of reverse inspection
techniques.
(2) Additional requirement.--The Commissioner of Customs,
in consultation with the Administrator of the General
Services Administration when appropriate, shall seek to carry
out paragraph (1) in a manner that minimizes adverse impacts
on the surrounding community.
(3) Elements of the program.--Using the authority granted
by this section and under section 629 of the Tariff Act of
1930, the Commissioner of Customs, in consultation with the
Canadian Customs and Revenue Agency, shall seek to--
(A) locate Integrated Border Inspection Areas in areas with
bridges or tunnels with high traffic volume, significant
commercial activity, and that have experienced backups and
delays since September 11, 2001;
(B) ensure that United States Customs officers stationed in
any such IBIA on the Canadian side of the border are vested
with the maximum authority to carry out their duties and
enforce United States law;
(C) ensure that United States Customs officers stationed in
any such IBIA on the Canadian side of the border shall
possess the same immunity that they would possess if they
were stationed in the United States; and
(D) encourage appropriate officials of the United States to
enter into an agreement with Canada permitting Canadian
Customs officers stationed in any such IBIA on the United
States side of the border to enjoy such immunities as
permitted in Canada.

customs and agriculture inspection officials of that country

States officials) for the purpose of insuring that persons
and merchandise going directly to that country from the
United States, or that have gone directly from that country
to the United States, comply with the customs and other laws
of that country governing the importation or exportation of
merchandise. Any foreign customs or agriculture inspection
official stationed in the United States under this subsection

be authorized to perform or are afforded in that foreign
country by treaty, agreement, or law.''; and

The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to the rule, the gentleman from
Louisiana (Mr. McCrery) and the gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Levin)
each will control 20 minutes.
The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Louisiana (Mr. McCrery).
Mr. McCRERY. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
Mr. Speaker, to begin this explanation of the bill, the bill before
us is very straightforward. It includes many elements which have passed
this House before, in some cases numerous times.
The Tax Relief Extension Act of 2003 extends a number of important
tax incentives strongly supported by Members on both sides of the aisle
including incentives which create jobs and encourage restoration of
brownfields.
One extension provision ensures that the benefits of individual tax
credits are not lost to the bite of the alternative minimum tax. Those
credits do little good if they are countered by the effects of the AMT.
And the bill promotes economic growth by extending a provision first
enacted in the 2002 stimulus bill allowing companies to carry back net
operating losses up to 5 years.
The measure before us allows two important provisions related to
defined benefit pension plans which must set aside enough money today
to pay promised benefits tomorrow. As a result of declining rates on
30-year Treasury notes, plans are forced to assume that plan assets
will grow more slowly than we know will be the case. This assumption
results in employers having to set aside additional funds in their
pension plan today, depriving them of money needed to expand their
businesses and create more jobs.
The bill temporarily replaces the 30-year Treasury rate as the
benchmark used for these calculations with an index based on high-grade
corporate debt. The provision in this bill mirrors H.R. 3108, a bill
approved last month in this Chamber by a vote of 397 to 2.
Further, the bill provides relief for embattled airlines facing
burdensome mandatory contributions. This industry has been hard hit by
the recession, a post-9/11 suspension in air travel and the resulting
reduced passenger loads, and the higher costs of security resulting
from terrorist fears.
Airlines are generally either in bankruptcy, coming out of bankruptcy
or teetering on bankruptcy's brink. Forcing them to make billions of
dollars in additional pension contributions at this time could be
disastrous.
Accordingly, the bill before us contains relief which allows airlines
to pay 20 percent of what current law would require into their plans
during the next 2 years.
Together, these provisions will give Congress the time to develop
long-term solutions to pension funding issues.
Finally, the bill includes several trade-related provisions. It
includes the provisions of the Miscellaneous Trade and Technical
Corrections Act, a compendium of bipartisan trade-related items, duty
suspensions, and technical corrections drawn largely from legislation
introduced by individual Members.
These duty suspensions are critical to many American employers since
they are paying unnecessarily high prices for supplies which are not
made here in the United States.
The House passed a substantially similar version of this bill in
March of 2003 by a vote of 415 to 11.
The legislation before the House today includes several additional
trade provisions, including an extension of Permanent Normal Trade
Relations status to Armenia and an increase from $1,200 to $1,600 in
the personal duty exemption for travellers returning to the United
States from the Virgin Islands.
Like the tax provisions outlined above, the trade provisions included
in this bipartisan bill are noncontroversial, small in cost and will
help United States companies better compete.
Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support this package.
Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. LEVIN. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of this legislation. I want to,
though, at the beginning talk about process and then I will discuss the
substance of the bill.
There have been some process issues. One of them relates to the
Senate. The bill here has some provisions that have been over in the
Senate and they have been held up by the action, as I understand it, of
one Member of the Senate. It relates to a labelling requirement and
essentially would, if that effort succeeded, roll back a provision that
we have favored. And I just want everyone to understand that I think
trade issues should not be handled that way.
Secondly, I want to say a word about the Armenia PNTR. We have been
discussing this, but not directly in the committee or the Subcommittee
on Trade for a number of months. A bill was introduced to grant Armenia
PNTR, and I very much have favored that happening. Unfortunately, the
bill was not sent through the subcommittee or the full committee, and I
think that really deprived us of a chance to add to this bill some
references to certain issues that Armenia has faced and that we think
other countries should confront, especially as they are going to accede
to the WTO which has already happened in the case of Armenia and
receive the extension of PNTR by the United States.
For example, we have been trying to introduce into this bill
references to the implementation by Armenia of some important aspect of
the Helsinki Act, citing that some progress, although not full, has
been made in the area of human rights. This would include treatment of
minorities, religious minorities and others, providing protection to
minorities from violence based on discrimination of any kind, hostility
or hatred, including anti-Semitism. Also, reference to the fact that
Armenia has demonstrated a commitment to enforcing internationally
recognized core labor standards and has been working to improve its
enforcement of those laws, as well as implementing some important
market reforms.
Well, this bill suddenly included the Armenia PNTR, which I have
favored, but there is resistance from some on
[[Page H11828]]
the majority to allow us to insert into this bill these references to
progress by Armenia in important areas that had reference, and should
have reference, to other countries; and so I very much regret that.
But as said, this bill has some important provisions including the
PNTR, provisions that extend important aspects of our tax laws. The
extension of the work opportunity tax credits, the welfare-to-work tax
credits, the AMT provision that the gentleman from Louisiana (Mr.
McCrery) mentioned, as well as several others including tax incentives
for the District of Columbia.
Also in this bill are some pension-related provisions. One of them
relates to the 30-year Treasury rate. This is an important provision
for large numbers of companies and their workers, and we needed to find
a way to introduce this into legislation and to implement it, and this
bill does exactly that. And is another reason to favor this bill.
There is also, as the gentleman from Louisiana (Mr. McCrery)
mentioned, a provision relating to airlines and a 2-year provision to
help them out. So this is a bill that has some miscellaneous provisions
in it, but some of them are not very miscellaneous. Some of them are
very important provisions. Some that are called technical, for example,
would suspend or reduce import duties on numerous items for which there
are no American competitors. And it would correct instances where
Customs has overcharged for import duties. These are provisions that
are important for domestic manufacturers and for their employees and
for consumers.
One other provision that I should mention, since I have been so much
involved with it with others, is the Reverse Customs Program at the
northern border. This bill has references to that. These references are
essentially relating to jurisdiction of committees. They do not change
the basic provisions and do not in any way disturb the pace by which
Customs will implement this important experiment in Reverse Customs
Programs so that we can expedite the transportation of goods and
passengers across the northern border, keeping in mind security
considerations.
So, all in all, I believe this is a bill that deserves support with
the caveats I mentioned. I have discussed earlier today, and the
gentleman from Maryland, Mr. Cardin, did with the chairman of the
committee, the issue of Armenia and the need not for anybody to
consider it a precedent either in terms of how PNTR is handled, other
countries are handled, or the provisions relating to them. And we have
received those verbal reassurances that the way the Armenia PNTR has
been handled, it will not be a precedent in terms of committee or
subcommittee consideration.
When my turn next comes I am going to yield many minutes to the
gentleman from Maryland (Mr. Cardin) who is going to talk about one
issue that is not in this bill where there is an opportunity to place
it and is so critical to hundreds of thousands of the citizens of the
United States of America, and that is unemployment compensation, and I
will do that at the appropriate time.
Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.
Mr. McCRERY. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from
Pennsylvania (Mr. English), a distinguished member of the Committee on
Ways and Means.
Mr. ENGLISH. Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the gentleman for yielding
me time.
As this institution moves forward to complete its business for the
year, I think it is particularly important that we pause to pass this
legislation that provides very critical tax relief and other important
continuations of policy that I think reflect where this institution has
been going, not only on tax policy but also on economic policy
generally.
Mr. Speaker, I want to call attention to a couple of very important
provisions that have been folded into this bill. I think one of the
most important things we could do right now is to extend our tax
treatment of net operating losses for companies, particularly in the
wake of the long period, hopefully ending now, of companies having to
attack against an ocean of red ink. I think it is particularly
important now, particularly as our economy is beginning to grow again
and beginning to grow again at a significant rate, that we give
companies the relief they need on their net operating losses.
We have an opportunity here, I think, to give an additional boost to
a lot of tax sensitive manufacturing concerns. And particularly, I
wanted to say as chairman of the Congressional Steel Caucus, at a time
when we are concerning ourselves with the health of the steel industry,
it would be most helpful if we could liberalize the treatment of net
operating losses and help not only steel companies, but also
manufacturers generally in this economy trying to bounce back from an
extended recession.
Mr. Speaker, I would also like to note as the gentleman on the other
side of the aisle did, that this bill contains a very important
provision providing Permanent Normal Trade Relations for the Republic
of Armenia. Armenia emerged from the wreck of the Soviet Union with
great potential, and they have done an enormous amount to liberalize
their society and liberalize their economy. This institution needs to
recognize that and take the additional step of stripping away those
outdated Jackson-Vanik restrictions.
With that, I would urge that my colleagues pass this legislation and
send a strong message that this body is prepared to go forward on the
tax front and the trade front and do what it needs to do.
Mr. LEVIN. Mr. Speaker, I yield 5 minutes to the gentleman from
Maryland (Mr. Cardin).
Mr. CARDIN. Mr. Speaker, let me thank my friend, the gentleman from
Michigan (Mr. Levin) for yielding me time.
Mr. Speaker, first let me say that there are some very important
provisions in this bill. I see my friend, the gentleman from Ohio (Mr.
Portman) on the floor, and I know that we are both pleased that the 30-
year Treasury replacement is included in this bill.
{time} 1645
I think we are both very disappointed that it is not for a longer
period of time and does not include other provisions and legislation
that we filed earlier that would have also helped preserve defined
benefit plans properly funded for the workers of America, but at least
there is some relief in this bill that is needed, and I am glad to see
that is included in the legislation.
Let me say I appreciate the way the gentleman from Michigan (Mr.
Levin) has presented the Armenian situation because I think he said it
exactly right. There are human rights problems within Armenia. The
Armenia Assembly of America, a respected group in this body, said the
people of Armenia deserve nothing less than the declared aim of their
government for free, fair, and transparent elections. As reported in
depth by the OSCE, this achievable standard was not met.
The gentleman from New Jersey (Mr. Smith), the chairman of our
Helsinki Commission, and myself as ranking Democrat sent the letter to
the Committee on Ways and Means in April of 2003. I just want to quote
one line from that letter where we said: The underlining intent of the
Jackson-Vanik language is to foster democratization and protect human
rights. Our commission puts a very high premium to carry out the
responsibility of this body to make human rights development in these
emerging democracies a top priority. We are disappointed that more
progress has not been made.
In Armenia's case, they do have normal trade relations, and I thank
the gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Levin) very much for the understanding
that the process that was used in Armenia's elevation will not be the
process used as we consider other countries for elevation on normal
trade relations; and clearly, we will be looking at the progress on
human rights issues.
Mr. Speaker, let me, if I might, spend the remainder of my time on
the unemployment insurance issue. I must tell my colleagues I am
extremely disappointed that the majority did not include an extension
of the unemployment insurance benefits in this extender bill. We are
going to be faced with the same thing that happened last year. The
Christmas present to our unemployed will be that they are not going to
get any additional benefits. The present program expires at the end
[[Page H11829]]
of December. We might be out of session by the end of the week, and yet
the majority sees no urgency in extending the unemployment insurance.
Eighty thousand to 90,000 workers every week will lose their Federal
unemployment benefits if we do not extend this program.
The majority leader, the gentleman from Texas (Mr. DeLay), said, and
I am quoting from today's paper, ``I see no reason to be extending
unemployment compensation since every economic indicator is better than
in 1993 when the Democrats ended the Federal unemployment program.''
Mr. Speaker, that is just not true. The extended benefit program in
the early 1990s did not end until the economy had created nearly 3
million jobs, compared to the pre-recession levels. The current program
is scheduled to end when the economy is still suffering a deficit of
2.4 million jobs. The current unemployment rate, 6 percent, has risen
since the extended program was established in March of 2002. While
starting at a higher level, the unemployment dropped substantially in
the 1990s before we terminated the program.
The number of the long-term unemployed had dropped significantly
before the 1990 extended program had expired. Today, the number of
long-term unemployed, 2 million, has remained at a high level. The
percentage of workers exhausting their unemployment benefits is higher
today, 43 percent, than when the 1990 program ended, 39 percent. There
are more people receiving unemployment today, 3.5 million, compared to
the 1990s, 3.1 million.
Mr. Speaker, I just give those numbers because all we have to do is
be in the trenches to know that people are hurting, people cannot find
jobs, where every person seeking a job, there is only one job
available. People want jobs, but cannot find them.
We need to extend the unemployment insurance Federal program. We have
always done that in a bipartisan manner. We have always done it in
every recession until we are on the road to recovery where people can
find employment. That is not the case today. By every indicator that we
have ever used in prior recessions, we should be extending the
unemployment insurance program in this legislation. We should not be
putting at jeopardy the needs of the people of our Nation.
So I am extremely disappointed; and I hope, Mr. Speaker, that the
majority will allow us the chance to vote on the extension of
unemployment insurance benefits before we adjourn this session of
Congress. I know that there is support on the other side of the aisle
for these programs. There have been two bills that have been filed. One
has been filed by the gentlewoman from Washington (Ms. Dunn). I filed
one. There has been legislation filed on both sides of the aisle. It is
important that we consider it. It is important that we consider it as
quickly as possible, and I hope that we will find a way to bring this
up. Maybe the other body will include it in this legislation. I think
we missed an opportunity to include it in this bill, and I am
disappointed about that, and I urge my colleagues to figure out a way
that we could address this issue before we adjourn.
Mr. McCRERY. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from
Illinois (Mr. Weller), another member of the Committee on Ways and
Means.
(Mr. WELLER asked and was given permission to revise and extend his
remarks.)
Mr. WELLER. Mr. Speaker, we have had some good news since July. We
have seen 286,000 new jobs created as a result of the Jobs and Economic
Growth Act that was signed into law in May. That is good news; and
really, this legislation we have before us today is another step in our
effort to continue growing this economy and creating jobs, because one
of the most important factors that affects the investment and the
creation of jobs is certainty; and when a tax provision expires and
there is doubt, uncertainty about whether that tax provision is going
to be extended, those who invest, business and others, hold back and
that affects our economy.
Passage of this legislation, with bipartisan support, is very
important as we work to continue growing our economy. There are several
very important economic growth provisions in this legislation that will
be extended for another year, a 12-month extension, legislation that
provides a tax incentive to clean up brownfields, abandoned industrial
sites that require some environmental cleanup. Of course, we are
extending the incentive to help business recover the cost of that
environmental cleanup and create new jobs, recycling those industrial
sites.
We recognize that there are many small- and medium-size manufacturers
and other companies that have lost money this year. They need capital
to invest in the creation of jobs to participate in the economic growth
that we are currently beginning to enjoy; and by allowing them to go
back over the last 5 years, find a profitable year, take this year's
loss and essentially apply for a tax refund, that will give them
capital to create new jobs.
Third, we all want those who are currently unemployed to have an
opportunity to get a job. We also want those who are on welfare to have
an opportunity to get a job; and the work opportunity tax credit is a
tremendous program that has worked so well to give those who have been
on welfare the opportunity for a job, a chance, in many cases the first
chance that they have ever had for a good-paying job.
Let us extend these. This legislation deserves unanimous, bipartisan
support. I urge an ``aye'' vote.
Mr. McCRERY. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from
Michigan (Mr. Camp), another distinguished member of the Committee on
Ways and Means.
Mr. CAMP. Mr. Speaker, I thank the chairman for yielding me the time.
There are a lot of important provisions in this legislation. I would
like to address my remarks particularly to the airline pension relief
provisions and why airlines face a pension funding crisis.
At the end of 1999, the airline industry's defined benefit pension
plans on average were funded at 102 percent. At the end of 2002, that
average level of funding fell to 54 percent, and the decline is a
result of three factors. For the first time since World War II, the
equity markets declined for 3 consecutive years. Market interest rates,
which are used to define pension liabilities, are at 40-year lows. This
pension funding crisis occurred at a time when the airline industry was
in its worst financial situation due to the global recession, September
11, SARS, the Iraq war, and increased security costs.
There are also problems with current funding rules with regard to
airlines. There is mandatory contribution provisions which tightened
the funding rules in two inflexible ways which mandated the use of the
30-year Treasury rate, which this legislation addresses, and secondly,
dramatically shortened the amortization period. That legislation was
tightened in many ways in 1994.
During the last 3 years, the mandatory contribution funding
requirements have been stress-tested by sustained economic downturns;
and so between the enactment in 1987 and the beginning of the 3-year
market collapse, the stock market had declined previously only in 1
year and then only by about 3 percent.
So in the face of this recent economic downturn and the simultaneous
collapse of asset values, this mandatory contribution has proved to be
onerous and inflexible, particularly to a highly cyclical industry like
the airline industry.
This legislation affects zero tax dollars. It would temporarily defer
contributions required by the mandatory contribution law for just a
period of 2 years. Forcing airlines to contribute billions of dollars
more over and above their regular pension contributions at this time
would be disastrous. This gives us time to develop long-term solutions
in this area. This is why unions and management came together to save
pension plans for workers. If we do not address this issue, airlines
will go bankrupt, as U.S. Airways has, and terminate their plans.
Please support this legislation.
Mr. LEVIN. Mr. Speaker, it is my pleasure to yield 2 minutes to the
gentleman from New Jersey (Mr. Pallone).
Mr. PALLONE. Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of this tax extension
bill. It includes, as has been mentioned, H.R. 528, a bill to extend
normal trade relations to Armenia. As co-chair of the Congressional
Caucus on Armenian Issues, I introduced this legislation with my fellow
co-chair, the gentleman
[[Page H11830]]
from Michigan (Mr. Knollenberg), and our bipartisan bill has garnered
112 cosponsors during the course of this year; and it has been included
in this bill thanks to the gentleman from California (Chairman Thomas),
the gentleman from New York (Ranking Member Rangel), and also the
gentleman from Michigan (Ranking Member Levin).
Mr. Speaker, Armenia has been consistently found in full compliance
with Jackson-Vanik since 1997, and the passage of this legislation will
go a long way to establishing closer relations between the United
States and Armenia. Since the fall of the Soviet Union, the Republic of
Armenia has consistently made strides towards a free and open economic
system; and like many former Soviet republics in the last decade,
Armenia has seen considerable diversity in this last decade.
Unlike most, though, Armenia has vigorously pursued free-market
reforms within a democratic framework. On February 5, Armenia was
acceded to the World Trade Organization, and its recent accession
supports its noted progress in adopting and implementing economic and
trade reforms. In fact, Armenia is consistently ranked the most
economically free nation in the region. It is truly amazing that all
this has been achieved considering that Armenia continues to suffer
dual blockades by its neighbors to the east and west, both Azerbaijan
and Turkey respectively.
I wanted to mention the comments that the gentleman from Michigan
(Mr. Levin) and the gentleman from Maryland (Mr. Cardin) made about
human rights violations and strides towards democracy in Armenia. I
know that, although Armenia continues to make great strides in these
areas, more needs to be done; and I do acknowledge that. In fact, I do
intend when I visit Armenia in 2 weeks, I wanted to mention to my
colleagues that I will be talking to the President and the leaders
there, and I will indicate to them that while we are very thrilled with
the fact that the PNTR legislation has now passed the House that more
needs to be done with regard to democracy and human rights.
But I want to point out that this will further strengthen our ties
and lead to greater strides in these areas.
Mr. McCRERY. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from
Ohio (Mr. Portman), a member of the Committee on Ways and Means, a
gentleman who has done tremendous work on the pension elements that are
contained in this bill and will continue, I am sure, to provide
leadership in this area.
Mr. PORTMAN. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman from Louisiana (Mr.
McCrery) for giving me some time. I want to congratulate him for
getting this extender bill to the floor. It is extremely important that
we extend so many of these important tax provisions. I would like to
think that over time we can make some of them permanent because they
make so much sense, and after all, this is a 1-year extension. We are
likely to extend them again and again. So I would hope that we could
work toward that, but it is a very important bill; and it is extremely
important we do it this year. If we do not, then we will have a
situation where there will be a gap and companies and those individuals
who want to take advantage of these good public policy tax provisions
will not be able to plan. So not to have them be retroactive but do it
at this point is extremely important, and I commend him and the
gentleman from California (Chairman Thomas) for getting us to this
point.
I rise today also very strongly in support of a specific provision
here that helps with regard to our defined pension plans. As all of us
know, defined pension plans are in trouble. In the last few years, we
have actually gone down in our pension coverage by about 19 percent. In
fact, in the past 18 years we have gone from about 114,000 defined
pension plans that are guaranteed by the Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation to about 32,000 plans, dramatic decreases.
Many of the reasons that people are no longer offering plans and why
this year we think that about 20 percent of plans are freezing their
plans for participants is because we have a broken system with regard
to what the interest rate is which is charged to these pension plans
for their contributions.
What we do in this legislation is we provide for a 2-year fix, a
short-term replacement for the currently and defunct 30-year Treasury
rate, and that is extremely important. It allows employers to calculate
the amount of money to set aside for their employee benefit plans in a
more reasonable way and a more accurate way.
{time} 1700
It strengthens, therefore, our defined benefit system dramatically in
the short-term while we take a look at this whole system.
I see the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Boehner), chairman of the
Committee on Education and the Workforce, is here, and I look forward
to working with him, as well as with the gentleman from California (Mr.
Thomas), chairman of the Committee on Ways and Means, the gentleman
from Louisiana (Mr. McCrery), the chairman of the subcommittee, and
others, including the gentleman from Maryland (Mr. Cardin), who spoke
earlier about this issue, to come up with longer-term solutions to our
pension funding rules, pension accounting rules to be sure that we can
indeed continue to have these important defined benefit plans.
I think they are extremely important as a part of our overall
security system, working with our Social Security System and our
defined contribution system, such as the 401(k) plan. Without a
permanent solution, these plans will be a thing of the past, and we
will not have this guaranteed benefit for millions of Americans.
I strongly support the legislation before us and urge my colleagues
on both sides of the aisle to do the same.
Mr. LEVIN. Mr. Speaker, it is my pleasure to yield 2 minutes to the
distinguished Delegate, the gentlewoman from the District of Columbia
(Ms. Norton).
Ms. NORTON. Mr. Speaker, I thank my good friend, the gentleman from
Michigan, for yielding me this time and for his assistance on this
bill.
I strongly support the many provisions of H.R. 3521, but I rise to
speak particularly about the D.C. tax incentives because the Members of
this body have seen what these tax incentives have done with their own
eyes. They have seen the District of Columbia rise from the dust with
the amount of building we see downtown and in the neighborhoods, and
that is due in no small part to the tax incentives that are in this
extender.
I want to thank the Speaker, who has worked with me to assure me that
these tax incentives would be extended. He promised me 2 years ago. He
has continued to say this is going to happen. I appreciate that the
gentleman from Texas (Mr. DeLay) and the gentleman from California (Mr.
Thomas) have kept on this. I know there were some difficulties. And I
particularly appreciate my good friend, the ranking member in the
minority, the gentleman from New York (Mr. Rangel).
I appreciate that the tax incentives have been so effective that the
President actually put them in his budget. I think it is because these
tax incentives are the essence of how bipartisan tax work can help
revive our Nation's Capital. The District had difficulty in the 1990s,
the way New York and Philadelphia did. They had States, we did not, and
I thought it was more important to get the businesses and the residents
to revive the city than to keep asking the Congress for money. And, in
fact, these tax incentives have recouped many times over for the
Treasury.
There is a $5,000 homebuyer credit if you buy a house in the District
of Columbia. This has reversed the flight from the District of
Columbia, and we have seen a 50 percent increase in homebuying over the
last 5 years. Many of them are staff from the House and Senate who are
always talking to me about it. According to the studies, the majority
of this homebuyer energy comes from the tax credit and not only from
increased employment and declining mortgage rates.
There is a wage credit, which has been an incentive for many
employers to remain in our city, and particularly for our tourist
industry. There is the EZ Bonds that have brought us retail businesses
of the kind that used to flee from the District, like K Mart. The zero
capital gains can be seen in the $200 million Gallery Place development
downtown.
[[Page H11831]]
So I, therefore, want to thank my colleagues for all this bill has
done for our City, and I strongly urge its passage.
Mr. McCRERY. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2\1/2\ minutes to the gentleman
from Ohio (Mr. Boehner), the distinguished chairman of the Committee on
Education and the Workforce.
Mr. BOEHNER. Mr. Speaker, the significant pension underfunding
problems that we face in this country have critical implications on the
retirement security of American workers. Traditional defined benefit
pension plans promise workers a set monthly benefit at retirement, and
we have a responsibility to ensure that these important pension
benefits for millions of American workers will be there when they
retire.
The tax extension package that we have before us today includes a key
pension funding change that was included in the Pension Funding Equity
Act, the bipartisan measure that passed the House previously on October
the 8th. It would have replaced the current 30-year Treasury bond
interest rate that is used by many employers to calculate the amount of
money they must set aside in their pension plans with a blend of
corporate bond index rates for the next 2 years, through 2005. Because
the current fix expires at the end of 2003, there is an urgency on the
part of employers, unions, and workers to address this issue.
Let me explain why this change, I think, is so important.
Strengthening the funding of defined benefit pension plans in the
short-term will reduce the likelihood that the Federal Government will
have to step in and pay benefits for underfunded plans, often at lower
benefit levels for American workers. Moreover, employers who are making
major short-term financial decisions need greater certainty to make key
decisions about how to allocate scarce resources. Doing nothing could
jeopardize employers' willingness to continue their defined benefit
programs that provide a stable and secure pension benefit to workers
during their retirement. Doing nothing is not an option, and for the
good of our economy and for the good of American workers we need to
act.
This measure also includes an additional item that would reduce
additional payments that airlines must make to their pension plan when
their funding falls below 90 percent of liabilities, called deficit
reduction contributions, and we would reduce those contributions by 80
percent for just the next 2 years.
I remain concerned about the possible consequences of reducing
deficit reduction contributions. Certainly, it is a last-resort
approach. I would prefer not to single out any one industry for special
relief, but enough of our colleagues in the other body feel
differently, and we are nearly out of time. So I am pleased the DRC
relief included in this measure is limited to 2 years, and I plan to
support this measure for the good of our economy and the overall health
of our Nation's pension system.
I am committed to ensuring that any DRC relief we enact is
responsible and limited in scope to avoid compromising the defined
benefit system as we look at broader, long-term reforms in both the
Committee on Ways and Means and the Committee on Education and the
Workforce.
Mr. LEVIN. Mr. Speaker, it is my pleasure to yield 2 minutes to the
gentleman from California (Mr. George Miller).
Mr. GEORGE MILLER of California. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman
for yielding me this time, and while I support this stopgap, short-term
bill, I must say this legislation really does nothing to address the
well-documented, serious and worsening pension crisis that threatens
the retirement security of millions of Americans, and I provide my
support for this legislation acknowledging the promise of my chairman,
the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Boehner), that we will, in fact, have
detailed hearings and comprehensive hearings on this matter in the
coming session of Congress.
Once again, this House is going to adjourn for the year without
enacting much-needed comprehensive pension reform. As a result, the
already precarious security of millions of seniors and working
Americans is likely to worsen. The Congress and the Bush administration
have been warned for 2 years about this deepening crisis. Yet as
scandals, bankruptcies, and deficits have skyrocketed, there has been
virtually no response. In fact, all we have seen from this
administration is a plan to allow companies to convert cash balance
plans that could cut some retirees pensions in half. Fortunately, it
looks as if we may be able to prevent this from happening, no thanks to
that administration.
Let no one be fooled, we are in a severe pension crisis in this
country. Over the past 2 years, the underfunding of pensions has
skyrocketed from $26 billion to $400 billion, the largest in history.
The reserves of the Pension Benefits Guaranty Corporation, which takes
over pension responsibilities for failed corporations, has gone from a
$7.7 billion surplus to a deficit of almost $9 billion, threatening its
future financial stability. According to the PBGC, the $11 billion loss
in fiscal year 2002 is more than five times larger than any previous 1-
year loss in the Agency's 29-year history.
For the past 18 months, the Bush administration and the Republican
leadership in Congress have repeatedly ignored our urgent requests to
wake up to the serious problem of pension underfunding. As the
administration dithered, the deficits continued to balloon and the
Government Accounting Office put the Pension Benefits Guaranty
Corporation on its list of high-risk Federal Government programs,
meaning the pensions of millions of Americans are in grave jeopardy.
As of today, the administration has yet to submit to Congress its
reform plan. In testimony before our committee last month, the GAO
demonstrated the severity of this problem in our pension laws, and I
hope that we will be able to address in the next session of Congress
that comprehensive solution.
Mr. McCRERY. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2\1/2\ minutes to the gentleman
from Michigan (Mr. Knollenberg).
Mr. KNOLLENBERG. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman for yielding me
this time, and I rise today in support of this very important bill. I
hope all of our colleagues on both sides will join in supporting the
bill because there are so many provisions that are important to our
economy and to our foreign policy.
Airlines relief has been mentioned, replacement for the 30-year
Treasury benchmark to allow companies to make more accurate
contributions to their pension plans is something that we desperately
need, and it is great to see that is provided here.
One provision in particular that I want to highlight is the Permanent
Normal Trade Relations for Armenia. I am a sponsor of H.R. 528, a bill
to provide PNTR for Armenia, which, as already has been indicated, was
introduced by myself and my cochair of the Congressional Caucus on
Armenian Issues, the gentleman from New Jersey (Mr. Pallone). The bill
currently has 112 cosponsors, a broad bipartisan group which includes
many members of the Committee on Ways and Means and the ranking member,
the gentleman from New York (Mr. Rangel). I want to commend the
chairman, the gentleman from California (Mr. Thomas), and the
subcommittee chairman, the gentleman from Louisiana (Mr. McCrery), for
their work to ensure that this is included in the bill.
Since declaring its independence from the Soviet Union in 1991,
Armenia has made some great strides in developing a stable Democratic
and open society. This includes an adherence to the fundamental
principle of free emigration. Armenia is found to be in full compliance
with the Jackson-Vanik requirement regarding free emigration under
title IV of the Trade Act of 1974. The time has now come for Armenia to
be graduated from this annual review.
On December 10, 2002, the World Trade Organization voted to include
Armenia in its membership. However, neither Armenia nor the United
States will be able to receive the full benefit of Armenia's inclusion
in the WTO unless Congress passes PNTR. Passage of H.R. 528 will not
only enhance trade and investment between the U.S. and Armenia, but
will also deepen the strong relationship between our two countries.
Approximately 70 U.S.-owned firms currently do business in Armenia. In
total, United States-Armenia bilateral trade for 2002 amounted to over
$134 million.
[[Page H11832]]
And, again, in closing, I want to thank everyone for working together
to bring this about, and I want to urge my colleagues again to support
this important bill.
Mr. LEVIN. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my time.
Mr. Speaker, I want to make two points. First of all, this bill is
not paid for, $7 billion, and I hope that the Senate will rectify that.
It is our understanding that they will. And I think that gives people
on our side some reassurance that this will not be a further addition
to an already escalating atrociously high deficit.
Secondly, I simply want to reinforce, on the issue of unemployment
compensation, that when the gentleman from Texas (Mr. DeLay) said, ``I
see no reason to be extending unemployment compensation since every
economic indicator is better than in 1993, when the Democrats ended the
Federal unemployment program,'' that, as the gentleman from Maryland
(Mr. Cardin) pointed out, that is really an inaccurate statement.
If we do not extend this program, every week after Christmas about
90,000 people are going to be out on the street without any benefits.
Now, we went through this the last Christmas. If my colleagues want us
to come back here this Christmas, the three of us who came last time,
and object, we will do that, but we should not have to do that. The
unemployment program should be extended, period. And I hope that the
majority in this House will step up to the plate on what is if not life
and death, it is survival decently for tens of thousands of our fellow
and sister citizens.
Mr. McCRERY. Mr. Speaker, I yield the balance of my time to the
gentleman from Florida (Mr. Foley), a respected member of the Committee
on Ways and Means, who will close the debate on this bipartisan bill.
Mr. FOLEY. Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman for yielding me this
time, and for his outstanding presentation on the floor today and for
going over some of the most relevant and important topics of this
extension of expiring tax provisions.
I want to call to the attention of my colleagues on both sides of the
aisle some very, very important substantial pieces of legislative tax
work that are here in the bill. The Work Opportunity Tax Credit, a
credit for employers equal to 40 percent of wages for hiring certain
disadvantaged individuals. Targeted groups include TANF families, high-
risk youth, certain ex-felons, summer youth, certain Veterans, and
families on food stamps. This is a very important provision in this
bill.
{time} 1715
Welfare to work, again an experiment which has yielded tremendous
results in Palm Beach County, the county in which I live, provides a
tax credit for employers hiring targeted groups equal to 35 percent of
wages.
These are interesting and important provisions to help people get
back on their feet, to maintain a work ethic, and contribute to
themselves, their families and our Nation.
The gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Camp) and I authored an important
provision relevant to elementary and secondary school teachers. My
father is a retired teacher and principal, and that is a $250 above-
the-line deduction for teachers purchasing classroom supplies. It was
first enacted in the 2002 stimulus bill, and it continues today.
Qualified zone academy bonds. These are targeted tax credit bonds for
school construction in economically targeted areas. This is very
important for Florida with the rapid growth of the population and the
need for school construction, once again a mechanism by which
localities can seek tax credits for bonds to help with that
opportunity.
Charitable contributions of computer technology used for educational
purposes. We have seen a blossoming of computers in the classroom in
educational settings, most due to the generosity of companies with
excess equipment. This extends for 1 year the current law which
encourages donation of computer technology and related equipment for
educational purposes, providing donors with a higher basis and,
therefore, larger deductions.
The gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Weller) mentioned the brownfields
remediations cost. Again, those are in my district and districts
throughout the country.
The Archer medical savings account, which will be a provision
contained also in our Medicare bill which will be brought to the floor
tomorrow or Saturday, all of these issues contained in this extension
provide some great opportunities for constituents throughout all 50
States and the territories.
Finally, for D.C. residents, the gentlewoman from the District of
Columbia (Ms. Norton) has worked extensively in reviving the fortunes
of the city, and extends for 1 year a range of tax incentives for
activities in the District of Columbia, including an important $5,000
tax credit for first-time home buyers. Anyone who lives on Capitol Hill
has noticed a refurbishing, a reinvigoration of one of our most
important cities. Visitors from around the world come to see where we
work and where democracy flourishes.
Thanks to this provision, a $5,000 tax credit, we are starting to see
the fruits of the labor of this bill, increasing homeownership and
increasing opportunities: zero capital gains for D.C. on long-term
capital gains held in the District, rental real estate buildings,
things of that nature, getting people to reinvest in the capital city;
and I thank the gentlewoman from the District of Columbia (Ms. Norton)
for helping the Mayor of this city and bringing some of these
opportunities forward.
I encourage passage of the expiring tax provisions and urge adoption
of this bill.
Mr. LANTOS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to offer some observations
regarding H.R. 3521, which includes the text of H.R. 528 that would
establish normal trade relations for the Republic of Armenia.
First, I wish to make clear I have supported conditionally
terminating the application of the Jackson-Vanik amendment, known as
Title IV, to the Soviet successor states, starting with the Kyrgyz
Republic and the Republic of Georgia in 2000.
In the case of this legislation, I support granting permanent normal
trade relations (PNTR) status to Armenia. I believe that graduation
from Jackson-Vanik will contribute to economic growth in Armenia.
Starting in 1989, Armenia had been receiving annual Jackson-Vanik
waivers, first as part of the Soviet Union and then as an independent
country. It's time to make this process permanent.
However, I also strongly believe that the graduation for any
successor state must be conditioned upon the development of a legal
structure that guarantees internationally recognized human rights for
its Jewish citizens, and members of other religious, national and
ethnic minorities. In the absence of such conditions, there is in my
opinion no possibility of establishing democratic institutions
applicable to all citizens.
Twice in the past, in the case of the Republic of Georgia and the
Republic of Kyrgyzstan, Congress has prudently determined that
graduation from Jackson-Vanik would require more than the mere opening
of a country's doors to emigration. The legislation prudently noted the
advances made in other areas prior to waiving Jackson-Vanik, including
the ability of Jews and other minorities to identify with their
cultural heritage, restitution of communal property, rigorous
governmental responses to anti-Semitism an xenophobia, and commitments
on the implementation of laws and practices ensuring minority
protection.
I believe that we do a disservice to the Republic of Armenia and to
the Armenian diaspora--Armenia's greatest resource and asset--by not
including the same standards to this legislation.
The findings that we believe should be included in this legislation
are as follows:
The Congress of the United States finds that Armenia--
Registered significant progress in developing a system of
governance in accordance with the provisions of the Final Act
of the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe (also
known as the ``Helsinki Final Act'') regarding human rights
and humanitarian affairs;
Addressed issues related to its national and religious
minorities through the relevant articles of its Constitution,
and as a member state of the Organization for Security and
Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), ensured that persons belonging
to national minorities have full equality individually as
well as in community with other members of their group;
Provided protection against incitement to violence against
persons or groups based on national, racial, ethnic, or
religious discrimination, hostility, or hatred, including
anti-Semitism;
[Append the following to finding in H.R. 528 related to
enacting free-market reforms] And is committed to making
additional reforms to its economy;
[[Page H11833]]
Concluded a bilateral trade agreement with the United
States, which entered into force on April 7, 1992, and a
bilateral investment treaty, which entered into force on
March 29, 1996;
Demonstrated a commitment to enforcing internationally
recognized core labor standards and to continue to improve
effective enforcement of its laws reflecting such standards;
and
Acceded to the World Trade Organization on February 5,
2003, and the extension of unconditional normal trade
relations treatment to the products of Armenia will enable
the United States to avail itself of all rights under the
World Trade Organization with respect to Armenia.
Armenia's small Jewish community is relatively well-treated and
maintains a good working relationship with the government. I hope that
the Armenian government will make available to the Jewish community an
appropriate public space as symbolic compensation for communal
properties destroyed during the Soviet period.
Although Armenia has gained accession to the World Trade
Organization, the decision to graduate a country from the Jackson-Vanik
amendment should be based upon those issues which motivated the
original enactment of this law: religious freedom and human rights.
Adoption of PNTR for Armenia by this House in the context as part of a
larger, unrelated tax measure without this language should not be seen
as any precedent for any future graduation.
In any case, I look forward to working with the gentleman from
California and the gentleman from New York on incorporating language
along these lines in the final bill regarding this legislation.
The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. Sweeney). The question is on the motion
offered by the gentleman from Louisiana (Mr. McCrery) that the House
suspend the rules and pass the bill, H.R. 3521, as amended.
The question was taken; and (two-thirds having voted in favor
thereof) the rules were suspended and the bill, as amended, was passed.
A motion to reconsider was laid on the table.
