On the recordFebruary 15, 2024
Today, I rise in support of H.R. 7176, the Unlocking our Domestic LNG Potential Act. The bill is simple. It would repeal President Biden's ban on liquefied natural gas, or LNG, exports. By passing H.R. 7176, we would strengthen our struggling economy, further U.S. leadership in reducing emissions, and increase the energy security of the United States and our allies. Green New Deal activists shouldn't be driving America's energy policy, especially at the White House. Restricting LNG exports will mean higher prices at home for Americans as it reduces the amount of worldwide output, putting upward pressure on prices for energy and all related goods. It also decreases investment in infrastructure and good- paying American jobs. Mr. Speaker, we must reverse course on this disastrous decision. Americans are already paying too much at the pump, the grocery store, and everywhere else. We must restore America's energy independence from foreign energy producers. ____________________
