House of Representatives Repeals Many Tax Breaks for “Big Oil”
t In a move expected by many, the Democracontrolled House of Representatives passed new legislation which will repeal many of the tax breaks “Big Oil” – companies like Exxon Mobil and Chevron – enjoyed under the last six years of Republican legislative and executive control. In addition to the reduced tax breaks, oil companies will be forced to pay more drilling royalties.
During this past election, many Democrats ran on the platform that “Big Oil” needed to have many of the tax breaks enacted by the Bush Administration revoked – especially considering Americans were coming off of a summer of gas prices well over $3 per gallon while oil companies enjoyed record billion dollar quarterly profits.
