Fed. Bill Would Fix Biden’s Attack Against O&G Via the Tax Code

If you've ever run a business or have been self-employed, you know how important it is to claim every legitimate deduction on your tax return. Anyone with a brain knows that wages, fuel, and repairs are expenses, the "cost of doing business"---especially in the oil and gas business. Yet in their zeal to destroy fossil energy, the Bidenistas inserted new regulations in the misnamed Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), a law made possible by the single vote of former West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin (who will live in infamy for his vote), relabeling such deductions as "subsidies" for the oil and gas industry (but no other industries). The Bidenistas eliminated those legitimate deductions so that O&G companies could no longer claim them as deductions, at least not the full value in the year in which they are spent. It's nuts! There's a new bill in Congress to correct this attack against the fossil energy industry.
