This answer is correct because all bills that call for increases in federal income tax must originate in the House of Representatives, and the nurse's representative could direct the petition or the nurse to the appropriate chairperson.Committees can send forward ideas for bills, but only the House of Representatives can originate bills that call for increases in federal income tax.The party secretary would not be the appropriate place to send this request because bills that call for increases in federal income tax must originate in the House of Representatives.The Senate cannot originate bills that call for increases in federal income tax.
