None, zero, zip, nada. Past Congress cannot bind current Congress. Please look at Art I sec 5 and 6.

Another problem with this: try telling a retailer you have a federal tax exemption when you make a purchase. It's their game and they make up all the rules.

I suppose we can leave it to the federal prosecutors to decide, but if he gets off on a misdemeanor...
