Why we checked itSpecific dollar figure attributed to opponent's voting record — verifiable against legislative history
What we foundPappas did vote for Biden's 2021 Build Back Better bill, which included over $100 billion in taxes on fossil fuel producers, but that bill never became law; the legislation that did pass (the Inflation Reduction Act) primarily created energy tax credits rather than imposing $100 billion in net energy tax increases, making the claim's framing overstated.
