What should be done to Congress for letting new tax legislation slide?

The word from the IRS is that our tax returns will be late this year because of Congress lack of action. We can not even file until they act. There is NO law at present. Should they be punished for this and how?What should be done to Congress for letting new tax legislation slide?
Nothing, Bush is the one that vetoed legislation to fix the problem. Bush wants them to fix the problem in a way that will lead to deficit spending. Congress wants to fix it responsibly while Bush wants to bankrupt the country.



Besides, you are 100% incorrect. There IS a law in place and if congress chose to not address the ATM issue, all filings can go off just like any other year. There will only be a delay if congress does fix the ATM issue because they will have to print out new forms with the correct information on them.
Actually, bush hasn't vetoed any AMT legislation yet. That's because the republicans in the Senate keep filibustering the legislation so that it will not come to a vote.
