Support lower rates on taxation of dividends. Protect the interests of the natural gas industry with respect to any tax reform proposals. Promote keeping Interest Deductibility in the tax code for LDCs. Educating Congress regarding impact of tax extenders on LDCs. Promote the development of the natural gas vehicle market by supporting various incentives. Tax Extenders: Congress is currently seeking to renew and extend tax provisions that have expired or are set to expire. Two of these expired provisions provide incentives for the purchase of high efficiency natural gas equipment. The third extends the tax credit supporting natural gas vehicles. o25(C) provides a tax credit for upgrading to high efficiency natural gas appliances in residential properties o179(D) provides a tax deduction for energy efficiency improvements in commercial properties. oThis issue arose in: S 617, Tax Extender and Disaster Relief Act of 2019 * Alternative Fuels Tax Credit (AFTC) was extended for calendar year 2018, 2019 and 2020 for $.50/gallon on H.R. 1865, Further Consolidated Appropriations Act under Section Q. Tax Credits: The carryover of excess corporate charitable contributions. This issue arose in H.R.1686 to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to extend the limitation on the carryover of excess corporate charitable contributions by regulated public utilities, and to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to extend the limitation on the carryover of excess corporate charitable contributions. This bill would amend the Internal Revenue Code to increase the carryover period for charitable contributions from 5 years to 20 years. Increasing the 5 year carryover period to 20 years would eliminate the penalty present in current law that is particularly problematic for our companies, which operate in regulated industries and generally make significant annual charitable contributions to community charities in their operating jurisdictions. This issue is more acute for companies in our industries - regulated electric and gas utilities - because we are among the most capital intensive industries in the country. Each year, the electric and gas utilities are spending more than $100 billion in investments to improve system safety and reliability while offering an important source of much-needed, high-quality jobs. * S. 2542, The Agriculture and Environmental Stewardship Act of 2019, was introduced on September 24, 2019 by Senator Sherrod Brown.

This bill amends the Internal Revenue Code to modify the excise tax rate for the Inland Waterways Trust Fund to equal 29 cents per gallon or the per energy equivalent of a gallon of diesel in the case of liquefied natural gas, as defined by this Act. Currently, the fuel tax on liquefied natural gas (LNG) vessels is the same as the diesel tax on a per-gallon basis. However, because a gallon of LNG contains less energy than a gallon of diesel, in effect LNG is taxed at 170 percent of the diesel tax rate.

This issue arose in H.R.1686 To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to extend the limitation on the carryover of excess corporate charitable contributions by regulated public utilities. - to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to extend the limitation on the carryover of excess corporate charitable contributions. This bill would amend the Internal Revenue Code to increase the carryover period for charitable contributions from 5 years to 20 years. Increasing the 5 year carryover period to 20 years would eliminate the penalty present in current law that is particularly problematic for our companies, which operate in regulated industries and generally make significant annual charitable contributions to community charities in their operating jurisdictions. This issue is more acute for companies in our industries - regulated electric and gas utilities - because we are among the most capital intensive industries in the country. Each year, the electric and gas utilities are spending more than $100 billion in investments to improve system safety and reliability while offering an important source of much-needed, high-quality jobs.

Currently, the fuel tax on liquefied natural gas (LNG) vessels is the same as the diesel tax on a per-gallon basis.

The bill also extends the 48C investment tax credit (ITC) for small-wind, geothermal, fuel cells, microturbines and combined heat and power (CHP) technologies for five years. CHP, fuel cells and microturbines use natural gas as an energy source. Tax Parity: S.505 - Waterway LNG Parity Act of 2017. This bill amends the Internal Revenue Code to modify the excise tax rate for the Inland Waterways Trust Fund to equal 29 cents per gallon or the per energy equivalent of a gallon of diesel in the case of liquefied natural gas, as defined by this Act. Currently, the fuel tax on liquefied natural gas (LNG) vessels is the same as the diesel tax on a per-gallon basis. However, because a gallon of LNG contains less energy than a gallon of diesel, in effect LNG is taxed at 170 percent of the diesel tax rate.
