2002-02-06 Tax Cuts On Time [HCONRES312] Failed
(235-181)
This resolution would have assured that the 2001 $1.35 trillion tax cut was implemented according to schedule. The resolution got a majority vote, but failed because a two-thirds majority was needed under House rules.

2002-02-14 Campaign Speech Limits [HR2356] Passed
(240-189)
This bill would eliminate campaign contributions over $2,000 to political parties and limit the rights of individuals and groups to participate in the political process in the two months before elections. ACU opposed this unconstitutional interference with freedom of political speech.

(225-199)
This bill would accelerate certain tax cuts passed in 2001, including reducing the 27 percent income tax rate, offering a health care tax credit and accelerating depreciation allowances, as well as extending unemployment benefits.
