Political Quotes

“House Republicans and President Trump remain firm in our commitment to lowering costs for families and restoring American energy dominance. I am proud to represent parts of the Utica and Marcellus shale formations, where natural gas development has transformed local economies and strengthened our Nation's energy security. Boosting natural gas production in Ohio and expanding LNG exports are essential to our vision of energy dominance. Under the last administration, President Biden repeatedly undermined the domestic energy producers, including imposing a ban on new LNG export permits. This misguided action discouraged investments in American natural gas and harmed our allies abroad, who are working to reduce their dependence on Russian energy. The Unlocking our Domestic LNG Potential Act ends political interference in the permit process and unleashes America's full energy potential.
