I ask two simple questions of the President: Are you making us more secure, and are you making us more prosperous?
And the answer to both of these is no.
We’ve got an anti-American energy movement in this country that is going to devastate every American. It’s going to leave us cold, dark, and hungry. It’s going to embolden our adversaries, and it’s going to harm our environment.
This administration has taken a hard line against American energy by cancelling thousands of pipeline jobs, cancelling drilling permits, and kneecapping energy producers with targeted tax increases and harmful regulations.
Americans are already feeling the pain of the Biden energy crisis at the gas pump and the grocery store, where we see exorbitant prices that continue to skyrocket. To make matters worse, heating bills are forecasted to be 54% HIGHER in 2021 under this administration.
I’m urging my colleagues to oppose this radical agenda, to stand up for American energy producers, and to provide every American household with affordable, reliable energy that has come from this country and allowed us to lift a billion people out of poverty in this world.
