AXPC Cheers Senate EPW’s Legislation Repealing the Punitive Natural Gas Tax

June 4, 2025 

Washington, DC – Today, American Exploration & Production Council CEO Anne Bradbury issued the following statement after the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee released its reconciliation legislation: 

Securing America’s energy dominance requires durable policy put forward by the Senate Environmental and Public Works Committee to repeal the punitive natural gas tax – a tax that ignores the upstream sector’s world-leading emissions reductions and unnecessarily raises energy production costs. Ensuring energy affordability, economic growth, and global competitiveness depends on Congress advancing this legislation.
