Senate Republicans approve plan to allow drilling in Arctic refuge with tax legislation

h/t Instapundit
Senate Republicans passed legislation early Saturday allowing oil and gas drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge as part of a tax reform package, moving closer to fulfilling a long-time GOP goal.

The passage of the bill marked a significant achievement for Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, the chairwoman of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, who has introduced legislation to open a portion of the Alaskan refuge to drilling every term she has served in the chamber, only to be blocked by Democrats.

"This small package offers a tremendous opportunity for Alaska, for the Gulf Coast, and for all of our nation," Murkowski said before the vote. "We have authorized responsible energy development in the 1002 area."
