Over the past few weeks, we have made it very clear how important it is for the United States to produce its own energy rather than rely on other countries for our supplies. The President and his allies have made things very clear that this is the thing that they want to do, shutting down American energy production, but the reality truly is that we can produce energy cleaner and more efficiently than any other nation on the planet. This administration decided to shut down American pipelines and shut down American energy production, which has done nothing but drive up the energy costs while threatening our national security and strengthening our adversaries around the globe. We simply cannot allow this to continue. President Trump's hard work to increase energy production and his leadership actually made us energy independent instead of energy dependent during his time. America has the resources and the ability to meet our supply needs, and I encourage the President to end his assault on American energy. ____________________
