Contact Congress about H.R. 1141: Natural Gas Tax Repeal Act

Oil and gas companies would no longer face this Clean Air Act methane program. The bill would repeal the program and cancel any money for it that has not been spent.

Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.

Natural Gas Tax Repeal Act is a House bill in Congress.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects oil and natural gas companies that produce, process, or move fuel. It could lower their costs or paperwork if they would have been covered by the methane program. It also affects federal agencies and groups working on methane leaks, because unspent program funds would be canceled.

Why this matters: This bill matters because it would change how the federal government handles methane from oil and gas operations. It could reduce costs and paperwork for covered companies. It could also remove one federal tool for cutting methane, a greenhouse gas. The final effect would depend on other pollution rules, market choices, and how agencies handle any work already in progress.

Key provisions in H.R. 1141

  • Repeals the part of the Clean Air Act that created a methane emissions and waste reduction program for petroleum and natural gas systems.
  • Ends the power in that part of the law to create fees, incentives, or other tools tied to methane from oil and gas operations.
  • Cancels any money approved for this methane program that the government has not yet spent.
  • Applies to the methane program provision as it existed the day before the repeal would take effect.
  • The House Energy and Commerce Committee reported the bill. It was then placed on the Union Calendar, a House list for bills that may get a floor vote.
