Schrader’s secret heating tax

Oregonians’ higher heating bills are about to get even worse thanks to Kurt Schrader.

The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board writes, “The House passed what it calls a “fee” on methane that amounts to a stealth tax on natural gas and everyone who uses it… Producers will naturally pass the cost of the tax along to customers… This is also a regressive tax that hurts low-income families without a financial cushion.”

NRCC Comment: “Kurt Schrader isn’t helping Oregonians struggling with high heating bills. Instead, his party’s massive spending sprees are only making it worse.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Courtney Parella
