Issue Positions: Growing Our Energy

Issue Position

When it comes to our energy sector, affordability, sustainability, and energy independence are critical to the future of Iowa and America. But it's clear that some politicians have ignored this cause while others have put forth expensive, unrealistic proposals that would destroy our economy.

Ashley believes Iowa can remain a leader in renewable energy and bio fuels without stifling our economic growth with taxes and unfair and onerous regulatory burdens on Iowa producers. In the Iowa House, Ashley supported a law ensuring that biosecurity and our food supply are not put at risk by foreign agents or extreme activists who use deception to gain access to agricultural facilities.

Ashley will work to increase American-made energy, reduce our dependency on foreign oil, protect the environment, and bring down energy costs for Iowans.
