Bennet, Burr Reintroduce Bill to Level Playing Field for LNG
Bill Would Equalize Tax Treatment to Put Competing Fuels on Fair Footing
Feb 03, 2015
U.S. Senators Michael Bennet (D-CO) and Richard Burr (R-NC) reintroduced their bipartisan bill to put liquefied natural gas (LNG) on equal footing with diesel fuel under the federal highway excise tax. The bill will allow LNG to compete fairly with diesel by taxing LNG on energy output rather than per gallon.
