Apparently there was an amendment in the proposal for a$1000 per gun tax.
Amendment did not make it on the final draft.

Yeah these corksukers are going balls deep because there is no harsh political pressure from the (R’s) RINO’s.

$1000 gun tax? Hold my beer. How about a 1000 percent gun tax?

WaPo
Quote:
If Congress won’t entertain a ban on assault-style weapons, Rep. Don Beyer (D-Va.) has a new idea: imposing a 1,000 percent tax on them.

Beyer introduced the Assault Weapons Excise Act on Tuesday with 36 Democratic cosponsors as Congress continues debating gun-safety proposals following last month’s back-to-back mass shootings. A 1,000 percent excise tax on semiautomatic rifles such as AR-15s would mark a drastic increase from any existing federal excise taxes on firearms — a proposal that Beyer is hoping could bypass the Senate filibuster, which requires support of at least 10 Republicans

Yeah, sorry. Misplaced special character. I learned to do that from CNN.

Why is a poll tax illegal but a gun tax legal according to the constitution?
