Transcript

This is a transcript of the video clips in which this bill is discussed.

IT WOULD BE APPROXIMATELY, IN DIRECT JOBS IN THE COAL MINING INDUSTRY, APPROXIMATELY AROUND 3500 TO 4,000, WITH ACTUALLY PICKING UP A LITTLE BIT AFTER THE NEW ADMINISTRATION HAS COME IN, INTO POWER IN WASHINGTON. SO IT HAS PICKED UP A LITTLE BIT, AND WE'RE HOAG -- HOPING THAT A LOT OF THIS CREDIT WILL BE USED. ALL RIGHT. THANK U MR. SPEAKER. SPEAKING TO THE BILL.

Del. Bill Howell (R-Fredericksburg): GENTLEMAN HAS THE FLOOR.

[Unknown]: THANK YOU, MR. SPEAKER, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OF THE HOUSE, I APPRECIATE THE INDULGENCE OF THE GENTLEMAN FROM SCOTT. WE GO AROUND THIS EVERY TIME. AND I CONTINUE TO HAVE THE SAME ISSUES. BUT MAKE SURE FOLKS KNOW WHEN YOU VOTE FOR THIS BILL, YOU ARE VOTING FOR A NEW TAX CREDIT. THIS IS BRAND NEW. THIS IS LIKE IT NEVER EXISTED BEFORE. THE PURPOSE BEHIND SUNSETS WAS THAT THE CREDITS EXPIRE, AND THEY HAVE TO COME BACK, AND YOU HAVE TO CONSIDER THEM BRAND NEW, COMPETING WITH OTHER CREDITS. WELL, I WOULD ASK THIS BODY, WHAT BODY DO WE HAVE OUT THERE WHO IS LOOKING AT ALL THESE TAX CREDITS? WELL, WE HAVE THIS TAX PREFERENCE COMMITTEE. THAT TAX PREFERENCE COMMITTEE IS SUPPOSED TO LOOK AT THINKS LIKE NEW TAX -- THINGS LIKE NEW TAX CREDITS. I SUBMIT TO THE BOYDY THEY DIDN'T DO IT WITH THIS -- BODY. IF WE FOLLOW OUR PROCEDURES, PERHAPS THAT'S WHAT WE SHOULD BE DOING. THE REASON WHY YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT THIS CREDIT VERY CAREFULLY, AGAIN, YOU HAVE TO JUDGE IT IN TERMS OF WHETHER IT CREATES JOBS, AND WHETHER IT GENERATES ECONOMIC ACTIVITY. AND WE HAVE THE STUDY FROM THE JLARC REPORT FROM SEVERAL YEARS AGO. WE ARE FOND OF QUOTING JLARC TO SUPPORT OUR POINT OF VIEW WHEN IT SUITS OUR PURPOSE. AND SO NOW JLARC IS SAYING THAT THIS, OF ALL TAX CREDITS WE HAVE, IS THE LEAST EFFICIENT TAX CREDIT OUT THERE, BECAUSE IT CREATES FEWER JOBS, AND IT DOESN'T PROVIDE THE ECONOMIC ACTIVITY THAT IT PURPORTS TO SUPPLY. AT A SUBSTANTIAL COST. $9.3 MILLION IN 2014, 9.3 MILLION IN 2015.
