Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) on Thursday introduced legislation that would provide commercial fishermen a temporary income tax credit to help them offset the high cost of fuel.
“The Fisheries Fuel Tax Relief Act of 2008, which I introduced today along with Sen. Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, as an original co-sponsor, would go a long way toward helping our fishermen out in these dire economic times,” Murkowski said.
