  SA 1702. Ms. STABENOW (for herself, Mr. Casey, and Mr. Van Hollen) 
submitted an amendment intended to be proposed by her to the bill H.R. 
1, to provide for reconciliation pursuant to titles II and V of the 
concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2018; which was 
ordered to lie on the table; as follows:

       At the end of subpart A of part I of subtitle C, add the 
     following:

     SEC. 13303. EXCEPTION TO REDUCED RATES BASED ON REAL 
                   HOUSEHOLD WAGES.

       If changes in the Employment Cost Index between December 
     31, 2017 and any calendar year after 2019 do not equate to at 
     least a $4,000 increase per household, then the provisions of 
     the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 which are amended by 
     section 13001 and 13002 shall each be amended to read as if 
     the amendments made by such section had not been enacted.
                                 ______
