Substitute offered
To replace the previous version of the bill with one that only allows the postmark to be seven days earlier than the date on which the payment actually arrives, rather than 14 days, and does not allow this if the postmark itself was later than the due date for the taxes, or if the payment is for delinquent taxes.
The substitute passed by voice vote
Amendment offered
