Private school vouchers. This section creates a new, unprecedented federal subsidy for private and religious schools. (Section 70411)

Religious college carve-out from the endowments tax. This section exempts a very small number of religious schools, including Hillsdale College, from an income tax on college endowments. (Section 70415(c)(1)(C)(ii) and 70415(c)(1)(D))

Deregulation of gun silencers and easily concealable guns. This section removes the regulations pertaining to gun silencers and easily concealable firearms under the National Firearms Act. (Section 70436)

Mandatory pre-certification for Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) claimants.

They will override the Parliamentarian. [/quote]

They won't. They may go around the letter of the decision somehow for some of the issues but they will not override or ignore the parliamentarian, the consequences of that would be disastrous for them (and everyone).[/quote]

+1. That is not a precedent they want to set. I think the last one that was fired was decades ago. This woman calls it straight. [/quote]
