tax law, 
(2) producers and refiners of oil and natural

port-related tax provisions, 
(3) those export-related tax provisions were suc-

inconsistent with our trade agreements, 
(4) the Congress responded by repealing the ex-
port-related benefits and enacting a substitute ben-

(5) producers and refiners of oil and natural 
gas were made eligible for the rate reduction even 
though they suffered no detriment from repeal of the 
export-related benefits, and 
(6) the decision to provide the effective rate re-

lowering the tax rate on the windfall profits they are 
currently enjoying.
