these are sll pieces, yet they were ng on e other hand, the legislatn we had that c.b.o. has scored over one milln jobs s or created was too big. well, we ought to be chipping way as wn on th, having $30 llion for a sll business nding fund, being able to provide a cole billion dollars of tax exclusion for small business capil foaon, is a positive item. you know, one of the thingth stkes me as ironic is that ou friends onhe oer side of the aisle ignore the fact that t legislation th we ha previously 42% ofit was for tax ts andreg the imct of thelternativeinimum tax from hiinmilend upper-middle iome families. every famiy in america that r $250,0 a year got a tax cut lastear and getting a tax cut this year. we've tried tax cutso help ve things forward. th is s business lending. we're moving ahead with ckages. the spker prtempore: the mr.in: i yield an additional minute. that. umenauer: i appreciate ese are part of an ongng effort th is making a ffence. th job lses peed the month that president obama took fice. t his fault. they had been building for 22 months. now we're maki

. >> what is the status of that legislatn? >> we have held a hearing. we will bring it up for a vote at some poiont. -- point. we have t iqbal question. the supreme court, as part of its attempt to shut the door on litigants, essentially changed the law on pleadings, and greatly upped the bar. i introduced a bill to try to bring back the status quo. senator specter and senator delay introduced a similar bill in the senate. i do not know if we can bring that to a vote this year. in an election year, there is a lot of nervousness in the democratic caucus against voting on anything they do not have to vote on where interest might be on the other side. hopefully that will dislve after the election, but we do not know. >> iqbal is another example of what we were talking about pure the court changed the pleading standard -- talking about. the court changed the pleading standard. that was not part of the issue. it could have been -- the court could have reversed, had it cared to, and very narrow grounds -- on gary miller grounds the immunity claim -- on very n

we should examine all of this legislatn very thoroughly and take only the very best parts and oered for to make sure we perform our financial markets without harming access to credit and job growth. as many of our colleagues have stated, we are not starting on a good note since we just received the basic text a few hours ago. we are tolthis is largeey the senate version that as i understand it, there aae 300 new pages that were not in the it is hard to be sure because it is not identified. there is no red line copy and we are n left to try to figure out exactly what is the new bill that we are considering. it would be very helpful if we had it redlined copy for this committee ancongress and american people to see what has been negotiatednd identified the new bill of over the last few nights or weeks and now presend before us. the process suggests that much has been done without the committee's active involvement and that we are now yet again being forced to consider legislation that we do not with regard to key elements, there's ttle disagreement that we needdto end a bailout. -- and ba
