The Energy Permitting Reform Act of 2024 is needed to help speed the implementation of clean energy projects. Read the letter.
I am glad that climate change was brought up in the presidential debate. All candidates should address climate change in their campaigns if they want to get votes as the American people know that there is 99% consensus in the scientific community as to the link between climate change and human activities. Recent press coverage has highlighted the consequences of the continued warming including heat related crop failures and insurance payouts. The Energy Permitting Reform Act of 2024 which recently passed committee would help to address this by speeding the implementation of clean energy projects. The bill does not increase the size of government, but it does increase the size of the economy by increasing the energy supply. I am hoping Congresswoman Tenney will co-sponsor this important legislation.
As a lifelong Republican and a member of Citizen’s Climate Lobby, I know that Conservation is Conservative!
