 Death Tax Repeal 
  While members of Congress were back in their 
      districts during the August recess, President Clinton vetoed the Death Tax 
      Elimination Act, legislation which gives family businesses and farms much 
      needed relief from the IRS. This burdensome tax has devastated too many 
      family businesses, farms and personal savings. No section of the tax code 
      is more unfair and more dangerous to our entrepreneurial spirit than the 
      death tax. The death tax is simply double taxation. It punishes people who 
      build a successful business or farm and try to leave that legacy to their 
      kids. Click
