Senate votes to end federal price controls on natural gas
The Senate approved a plan to phase out all federal controls on new gas over 10 to 12 years with a delayed end for old gas. The measure aims to avert a winter shortage by allowing high prices for surplus gas while keeping consumer rates low for small users. The House is not expected to act this year.
