2025年《GOP法》削减联邦石油/天然气使用费, 威胁新墨西哥州未来收入及州计划5.1B美元。 A 2025 GOP law cut federal oil/gas royalties, threatening New Mexico’s $5.1B in future revenue and state programs.

2025年7月签署的由共和党支持的法律将联邦石油和天然气使用费从16.7%降低到12.5%,扭转了拜登时代的上涨趋势。 A Republican-backed law signed in July 2025 reduced the federal oil and gas royalty rate from 16.7% to 12.5%, reversing a Biden-era increase. 这一变化旨在推动能源生产,预计在未来十年内将削减60亿美元的联邦特许权使用费收款,新墨西哥(其最大受援国)到2050年可能损失多达51亿美元。 The change, aimed at boosting energy production, is expected to cut federal royalty collections by $6 billion over the next decade, with New Mexico—its largest recipient—potentially losing up to $5.1 billion by 2050. 这威胁到国家资助的方案,例如幼儿教育、普及儿童保育和教师加薪。 This threatens state-funded programs like early childhood education, universal child care, and teacher pay raises. 作为回应,新墨西哥州将新租约的特许使用费提高到25%,并解除了销售暂停令,但收入预测的下降引发了关于供资优先事项和方案资格的辩论。 In response, New Mexico raised its own royalty rate to 25% on new leases and lifted a sales moratorium, but declining revenue projections have sparked debate over funding priorities and program eligibility. 其他州,如怀俄明州、路易斯安那州、北达科他州和得克萨斯州也面临财政转变,尽管得克萨斯州由于联邦土地有限而受影响较小。 Other states like Wyoming, Louisiana, North Dakota, and Texas also face fiscal shifts, though Texas is less impacted due to limited federal land. 随着现有租约的到期,在下一个十年中,全面影响将逐步显现。 The full effects will unfold gradually over the next decade as existing leases expire.
