In the 8th Issue of the Taxpayer's Tab, NTU Foundation presents some bills ripped from the headlines and others that slipped through the cracks. With an international aid bill targeting climate change, disease, and child care, we found out how much the sponsor planned to spend from that bill's created currency transaction tax. How much? Check out our Most Expensive Bill of the Week section. The Tab also investigates our most popular bill yet. 99 Congressmen and 32 Senators cosponsored this bill relating to the health care reform act and how it effects to military dependents. Bills in this week's Tab include:
- HR 5783, Investing in Our Future Act
- S 3653, Health Care Bureaucrats Elimination Act
- HR 4923/S 3201, TRICARE Dependent Coverage Extension Act
- S 3679/HR 5949, Students Taking Action for Road Safety (STARS) Act
