 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service

Expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that: (1) employees of the U.S. oil and gas industry (including the oil and gas service industry) have been directly injured by the decline in domestic oil exploration caused by increased petroleum imports; and (2) the Administration should immediately broaden its interpretation of the Trade Adjustment Assistance Act in order to allow such employees to qualify for certification under the Act.

States that if the Administration does not act immediately to resolve this matter the House will address this issue on the first appropriate vehicle to be considered by the full House.
