Calvin from New Mexico

Let’s put the shoe on the other foot, what if we quit paying taxes, let’s put the governmental FREELOADERS on the same boat. I realize that things would do nothing but get worse, WE ARE HEADED THAT DIRECTION NOW!! If this bill is passed as is, my coworkers, as well as I, will be one of many others joining the unemployment line. Don’t get me wrong, this is a good bill, BUT IT NEEDS TO BE REFINED.

Eugene from Alaska

This bill will affect my job, increase my home utility costs and not properly address the issues associated with the title. Given our present economic environment, I have to ask how can Congress pass a bill which will reduce our energy output and kill jobs?

Richard from New Mexico

I work in the oil and gas industry in South Eastern New Mexico. It has been hard these last few months to stay a float. I do not know what would happen to my job security if this bill passes. If I loose my job, how would I support my family?
