Political Quotes

Last week, the EPA delivered a devastating blow to American energy generators with the decision to impose severe regulations that are designed to close the power plants that Pennsylvania communities rely on each and every day. This heavy-handed approach to regulation is the clearest sign yet that President Biden is more interested in catering to the far left than supporting American families. Instead of investing in the resources that are underneath the feet of my constituents in Pennsylvania, President Biden has chosen to placate his far-left base by attempting to close the coal-powered plants that generate nearly 20 percent of our electricity. It is time to send a clear message that this administration cannot gamble away our energy stability by relying on inconsistent Green New Deal technologies like windmills and solar panels. Risking blackouts during the heat of summer, when the loss of power can ultimately be deadly, is too high a price to pay in order to score political points. The EPA must immediately reverse its course of action and allow American energy producers to continue to lead the way on reliable production of energy.
