The Pennsylvania House narrowly approved legislation on Wednesday that would authorize a tax on the natural gas industry in exchange for limiting the control that municipalities would have over where companies could drill. Lawmakers approved the legislation 101 to 90, according to State Representative Jesse J. White, a Democrat who voted against the bill, known as House Bill 1950. It now goes to Gov. Tom Corbett, who said Wednesday in a statement that he would sign it. The bill’s supporters say it will bring state and local governments $1 billion over five years. Its critics argue that it provides no mechanism for towns to hold companies accountable.
