What we don't want to happen (I think) is that Congress doesn't attach conditions to the lifting of the ban.

We don't really know if there are "terms" to the present congressional ban.

Pelosi wants NEW tax money from the oil companies...Tax them to death....Guess who they have to pass it to...In fact, the Dems want both...raise the tax at the pump and more taxes from the oil companies.

Very important. If the ban is not renewed, Pelosi and Co. will try to put sneak another one in (in an innocuous bill) and hope the Republicans don't see it.
