Legislative

Oppose A Pennsylvania Gross Profits Tax
Two bills (HB 1518 and 1588) have been introduced calling for an “oil company gross profits tax.”

The definitions apply to many propane dealers, who are involved in importing or wholesale distribution of propane.

The bills state that dealers may not pass along the costs of the tax to consumers.

CONTACT your legislators ASAP to oppose these bills or any similar bills.

A copy of a draft letter for the House and Senate can be downloaded by clicking here for the House and here for the Senate. You may mail by standard mail or email your representatives at the following sites.

Each of these links will open to a list of legislators. Choose your legislator from the list. For the Senate, an email will open addressed to him. For the Representatives, a page will open with a link for his email. If you do not know your legislator, there is a search option at the top of the page which will allow you to input your zip code and advise who your legislator is.

ACT QUICKLY because this tax may be tied to budget consideration.
