“The Reed Amendment — which bans people determined by the Attorney-General to have ‘renounced citizenship for the purpose of avoiding taxation’ — was an amendment to the Immigration in the National Interest Act of 1995. I was aware in a general sense that Republicans had taken back the House and the Senate in 1994, but I’d never really put two and two together until reading this list: Republicans formed a majority among the supporters of the Reed Amendment. Indeed, every single one of the Republican freshmen on the committee who joined the House as a result of the 1994 ‘Revolution’ voted for Reed’s amendment.”
