In 2019 governments spent $51 billion on natural gas consumption subsidies, which is why it's cheaper in a lot of places to heat your home with gas rather than electric.

That's worldwide, not US. No one seems to know what these "subsidies" are in the US context other than vague complaints about tax treatment of profits. The numbers are never netted out of, eg, fuel tax either.

Those aren't American numbers. Many countries for instance subsidize fuel, the US taxes it.
