What Crude Oil Export Ban Repeal May Mean for Phila. Region

While one 1970s-era energy policy, corn fuel mandates, goes on in automatic pilot, Congress this week sent to the showers the 40-year-old ban on U.S. crude exports. Congressional leaders approved the measure to end the export ban as part of the omnibus appropriations bill that is aimed at preventing a government shutdown. As part of the deal, Democrats were able to extract a rollback of GOP attempts to stop some of President Obama's environmental regulations and extensions of wind and solar tax credits.
