In 2017, I met the CEO of a major German manufacturing company. The CEO was envious of the U.S. and its position as an energy powerhouse. Our development of oil and gas had made energy so abundant and affordable that he was exploring opportunities to open new manufacturing facilities in the U.S.
On the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, I heard from European leaders about how American energy exports, namely liquified natural gas (LNG), were crucial to the region’s independence from Russian energy manipulation.
And in my home state of Colorado, energy development created jobs and opportunities in communities left behind by the tech boom and urban growth.
Despite these benefits, the Biden Administration chose to unilaterally disarm America’s energy advantage, halting exploration and production leases, blocking LNG exports, and waiving sanctions on the Nordstream 2 pipeline so coveted by Russia.
