America knows how to do it better. By the way, it is American innovation that has opened up the ability to produce more energy cleaner than anyone else in the world, and the President of the United States is the one saying no to America. He is not saying no to all energy. He is saying no to the cleanest American energy. But then he is begging foreign countries, which actually produce energy without American standards, begging them to give us our oil at a much higher price than just doing it here in the best place to do it in the world. It perplexes me why the President of the United States says no to American energy while begging dictators to give us our energy at a higher cost, but that is where we are. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman.
