How do you get to be energy independent when the components of EV today are all controlled by China?
I would just like a pledge from you because I know you are sensitive to the Nations and discriminatory policy over time.
How are you going to be independent if China produces the very components that make up EV?
It is not an easy job, and I commend you for taking it on board.
I would like your commitment to also work together with us to find a path through some of these difficult places.
The concerns I know with this is the concerns I have are supply chain.
Well, I would suggest that, Mr. Secretary, that you read those two documents.
We seek energy independence. We seek energy dominance, so we are not held hostage by foreign entities.
I think it has been like 30, 35 years now.

Are you aware it will take 2000 percent increase in 20 years to catch up of where we are today in critical minerals?
