- I oppose reforming corporate welfare policy and wish to donate resources to the campaign committee of Speaker Nancy Pelosi (CA).
- I support reducing or eliminating royalty payments for oil and natural gas leases in the Outer Continental Shelf by: 1.) Increasing minimum royalty payments for coal, oil, and natural gas leases, prohibiting payment of interest upon any overpayment of royalties, and eliminating the limitation on liability for offshore facilities and pipeline operators for oil spills. 2.) Prohibiting entities to carry out any project that supports power plants that operate on fossil fuel. 3.) Prohibiting making loans to carry out projects that will use fossil fuel. 4.) Prohibiting the use of funds to award any grant or other direct assistance to any rail or port project that transports fossil fuel. 5.) Limiting or repealing provisions to allow tax incentives for investment in fossil fuels, increase the Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund financing rate, and imposing a 13% tax on the removal price of any taxable crude oil or natural gas from the Outer Continental Shelf in the Gulf of Mexico. 6.) Repealing the corporate income tax exemption for publicly traded partnerships with qualifying income and gains from activities relating to fossil fuels. 7.) Eliminating accelerated depreciation for property that is receiving a subsidy for fossil fuel production. And wish to donate resources to the campaign committee of Rep. Ilhan Omar (MN) and/or to an advocate group currently working with this issue.
