American Samoa Possession Tax Credit Act of 2003
2008 · fourth_quarter · Client: NATIONAL GRID, USA
Energy Tax Legislation - HR 6049 by Ways and Means Chairman Rangel [D-NY] is a tax extenders bill including extension of expiring or expired energy taxes. The version posed by the House was fully paid for with offsets. The version later passed by the Senate was not fully paid for, and the Republican Senate minority opposed offsets to pay for existing tax laws. The stand-off was solved when the energy tax extenders, an AMT patch and the so-called bailout package were put into HR 1424, an amendment in the nature of a substitute, and approved for the House and Senate and signed into law by the President.
