Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
Income Taxes INCOME TAXES:
The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 were 28.9% and 26.0%, respectively. The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were 20.6% and 17.6%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the impact of certain permanent differences related to the repurchase of the Convertible Notes (see Note 9 – Long-Term Debt for more information), equity compensation and state taxes. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the impact of equity compensation and state taxes.

The total amount of uncertain tax positions at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $67,805. If these uncertain tax positions were recognized, approximately $67,805 would affect CNX's effective tax rate at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. There was no change to the unrecognized tax benefits during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

CNX recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in interest expense and income tax expense, respectively. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, CNX had no accrued liabilities for interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
