SA 2392. Mr. CASSIDY submitted an amendment intended to be proposed
by him to the bill H.R. 22, to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986
to exempt employees with health care coverage under TRICARE or the
Veterans Administration from being taken into account for purposes of
determining the employers to which the employer mandate applies under
the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act; which was ordered to
lie on the table; as follows:
On page 948, after line 24, add the following:
(c) Adjustment; Exportation.--
(1) In general.--The Secretary of Energy may adjust the
schedule of sales under subsection (a) as the Secretary
determines to be appropriate to maximize the financial return
to United States taxpayers.
(2) Exportation.--Crude oil sold under subsection (a) may
be exported if the Comptroller General of the United States
finds that--
(A) the crude oil sold would generate greater revenue if
sold on the international market than on the domestic market;
and
(B) such an international sale would decrease energy prices
for United States consumers.
