LaPORTE—Speaker Tim W. Cavinder made the following announcement with the introduction to the Anti-Terriorism Support Act after the attacks in Israel.

We cannot let the terriosts win. Given the recent attacks in Israel, and the rise in threats across the world, I am introducing the Anti-Terriorism Act that will raise taxes among all House Member by 12% to go towards efforts to counter terriorism across the world.
