As a result of the Iran War, our liquefied natural gas exports are expected to generate as much as $4 billion in windfall profits in just a single month. These profits directly support further fossil fuel development, making oil and gas companies richer, jeopardizing long-term energy security, and doing nothing to address the price shocks plaguing Americans at the pump. A windfall profits tax reduces the overall profitability of the crisis and ensures that the industry’s crisis profits are largely returned to the American public.
