My comments weren't confined to this session. It was our former Exxon lobbyist governor, Sean Parnell and out two ConocoPhillips employee senators who rammed SB 21 through a gerrymandered legislature.

The recent budget agreement did offer nonbinding intent language in its budget proposal to kill off the state oil and gas tax credit program by the end of the next fiscal year, in June 2018. Not a done deal yet by any stretch of the imagination. The devil is in the details.
