| 1976-02-05 | Natural Gas Deregulation [HR9464] | Agreed To (205-201) |
 |
|
|
| Smith (D-IA) amendment to the Krueger (D-TX) substitute amendment, to deregulate natural gas sold by small producers with sales of less than 100 billion cubic feet a year, but continue Federal Power Commission regulation of major gas producers. The Smith amendment extended federal controls over major companies to cover gas sales in intrastate markets. The Krueger amendment would have removed regulation by the Federal Power Commission from all natural gas producers. | |||||

 |
No Vote | |
| Bauman (R-MD) amendment to delete language in the bill that would partially lift the U.S. trade embargo against North and South Vietnam if the Vietnamese provided an accounting of U.S. military personnel still missing in action. This would remove significant leverage from the U.S. in obtaining a full accounting of our MIA's. | |||||
