Issue Position: American Energy Independence

Issue Position

Our nation is blessed with an abundance of coal, natural gas, and oil that provide the base load electricity needed to power our lives and our future. President Trump understood that fact and embraced a true all of the above energy strategy that made the United States energy independent for the first time in over 60 years.

The fact is, we cannot electrify the economy by eliminating our most reliable sources of electricity. We must invest in new fossil fuel technologies as well as renewables because we need more electricity to run a 21st century economy, not less. Unfortunately though, the Biden Administration and Democrats in Congress no longer believe in an all of the above energy strategy and want to totally eliminate the use of fossil fuels.

The Democrats don't seem to understand the consequences of their short sighted energy policies. When Joe Biden killed the Keystone XL pipeline, he killed thousands of good paying American jobs and, by his own Energy Secretary's admission, the "best way" to transport fuel.

The Democrat "Green New Deal" is a $93 Trillion sham that will destroy our economy, and the Biden climate agenda will give the Chinese Communist Party the advantage it needs to expand its role as the world's largest energy producer.

Energy makes modern life possible and the Democrats are holding America back.
