Well, thank you, Mr. Chairman. First I want to say how excited I am to have been selected to serve on the Health Subcommittee. Healthcare is such an important issue in my rural Appalachian district, everything from cost to quality to…
This is why we need to maximize the production of clean, reliable, affordable American energy...
We are the world's largest natural gas producer. This year we are going to be the biggest exporter.
Energy security is national security. That goes for us here in America and for the rest of the world.
If we want viable, sustainable energy solutions that make all Americans secure, that appreciates the diversity of our landscapes...
It is hard to believe our military relies on China for this stuff. We need to scale up domestic production rapidly.
The Biden administration uses the word 'transition' to talk about getting rid of fossil fuels. That is a negative way to use that term.
We produce energy better, safer, and cleaner than any other place in the world.

I do insist on the point of order. The Acting CHAIR. The gentleman will state the point of order.
I thank the chairwoman for yielding. Mr. Chair, I rise today in support of H.R. 21, the Strategic Production Response Act. Instead of unleashing America's vast domestic energy resources, President Biden has hobbled our Nation's energy…
I have no opposition to this amendment. This amendment would increase the percentage cap on Federal lands identified in DOE's replacement plan for oil and gas production, taking it from 10 percent to 15 percent. Mr. Chair, I support this…
This is another tactic to delay implementation of the underlying bill. Energy security is national security, and if my Democratic colleagues recognized this, they wouldn't need to abuse the SPR and attempt to offset the high prices caused…
Today I rise in support of H.R. 22 led by our Energy and Commerce Committee chairwoman, Cathy McMorris Rodgers. Earlier this week it was reported that after President Biden drained over 200 million barrels out of America's Strategic…
