Senators Who Voted To Protect Oil Tax Breaks Received $23,582,500.00 From Big Oil
In a 51-47 vote, 43 Senate Republicans and four Democrats filibustered to protect $24 billion in tax breaks for Big Oil. Although a majority voted for Sen. Robert Menendez’s (D-NJ) bill, it fell short of the 60 needed. The only two Republicans to break rank were Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) and retiring Sen. Olympia Snowe (R-ME).
A Think Progress Green analysis shows how oil and gas companies have funneled cash to the same senators who protected its handouts:
– The 47 senators voting against the bill have received $23,582,500 in career contributions from oil and gas. The 51 senators voting to repeal oil tax breaks have received $5,873,600.
– The senators who voted for Big Oil’s handouts received on average over four times as much career oil cash as those who voted to end them.
– Overall, Senate Republicans have taken $23.2 million in oil and gas contributions. Democrats received $6.66 million.
– Since 2011, Senate Republicans have voted seven times for pro-Big Oil interests and against clean energy three times.

so it's ok they get paid millions to vote in favor of a 24 billion dollar tax credit for big oil? Pretty awesome deal for oil companies. Pay out 24 million to users, and get 24 BILLION in return.

Gas in Ottawa is about $1.32/L ($5.02/gal). Went to Montreal yesterday and saw it at $1.42/L ($5.38/gal). Conversion rate is 1:1 right now.
