Bill 119 HJRes 14 is a proposed amendment to the Constitution of the United States that seeks to repeal the sixteenth article of amendment. The sixteenth amendment, ratified in 1913, granted Congress the power to levy an income tax on individuals and corporations. If passed, this amendment would effectively eliminate the federal income tax system, which is a major source of revenue for the government. Proponents of the bill argue that the income tax is burdensome and unfair, and that repealing it would lead to a simpler and more equitable tax system. Opponents, however, argue that the income tax is necessary to fund essential government programs and services, and that repealing it would result in significant revenue loss for the government. The bill is currently being debated in Congress, with supporters and opponents presenting their arguments for and against its passage. It remains to be seen whether the bill will garner enough support to be passed into law and ultimately repeal the sixteenth amendment.
