Cornyn Statement Ahead of President Obama's Speech on Energy

Statement

Ahead of President Obama's speech at Georgetown University on America's energy security, U.S. Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) today issued the following statement:

"The American people need action from President Obama not another lecture, especially as skyrocketing gas prices are crippling middle-class families and small businesses. Since taking office, the President's policies have exacerbated the economic pain Americans are feeling at the pump. He has restricted our domestic supplies of oil and natural gas, championed failed cap-and-trade legislation, and allowed the EPA to begin imposing massive energy taxes through backdoor greenhouse gas regulations. It is time for the President to recognize the damage his policies are having on the economy, take his boot off the neck of domestic energy producers, and unlock our domestic energy potential."
