What this bill would do

The "End Oil and Gas Tax Subsidies Act of 2025" aims to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to repeal various fossil fuel subsidies for oil companies. The bill targets several specific tax provisions, including amortization schedules, production credits, and depletion allowances. It also seeks to restrict certain deductions and changes how major integrated oil companies account for inventory. Additionally, the bill modifies foreign tax credit rules and clarifies the definition of crude oil to include tar sands. Most changes are set to take effect after December 31, 2024.
