The American Energy Alliance supports H.R. 1023 the Cutting Green Corruption and Taxes Act, H.R. 7023 the Creating Confidence in Clean Water Permitting Act, H. Res. 987 opposing the Biden Administration energy policies, and H. Con. Res. 86 a resolution opposing a carbon tax.

H.R. 1023 would repeal the so-called greenhouse gas reduction fund. This slush fund is a vehicle for handouts and payoffs to special interest groups that have the right politics. It is not an appropriate use of...

The American Energy Alliance supports H.R. 7176, Unlocking our Domestic LNG Potential Act of 2024, which would remove restrictions on approvals of exports of liquified natural gas.

The restrictions targeted for repeal by H.R. 7176 are antiquated procedures left over from the days of energy scarcity. Fears that the United States was running out of natural gas prompted special approval requirements for any exports. This is not the world we live in today. Domestic natural gas production has...

The American Energy Alliance supports H.R. 4468, the Choice in Automobile Retail Sales Act which would prevent the EPA from mandating certain types of vehicles.

The Biden Administration has made very clear that it has a strong ideological preference for electric vehicles and wants to do everything in its power to increase electric vehicle sales. But Congress has given no power to the President to require the purchase or sale of electric vehicles. Indeed, where the topic is mentioned,...

Key Vote YES on H.R. 1435

The American Energy Alliance supports H.R. 1435 the Preserving Choice in Vehicle Purchases Act which would limit the ability of California regulators to restrict the type of vehicles that Americans can purchase.

Neither the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA) which established fuel economy standards, nor the Clean Air Act (CAA) which regulates vehicle tailpipe emissions gives California, or any state, the authority to ban certain types of cars. In fact, both EPCA and the CAA...

The American Energy Alliance supports H.R. 1640 the Save Our Gas Stoves Act and H.R. 277 Regulations from the Executive In Need of Scrutiny Act. 

H.R. 1640 would prevent the Department of Energy from proceeding with its overreaching and illegal rulemaking which would ban at least 40% of all gas stoves and as many as 100% of gas stoves with certain features preferred by consumers. While claiming this rulemaking is about energy efficiency, in reality it is just one part of the...

The American Energy Alliance urges all Senators to support H.J. Res. 27, the Congressional Review Act resolution disapproving of the revised definition of "waters of the United States" under the Clean Water Act.

The Clean Water Act clearly spells out an extensive state role for regulation of water sources. The federal statutory regulatory role is overseeing navigable waters of the United States. The repeated attempts by federal bureaucrats to stretch this definition to cover nearly all water...

The American Energy Alliance urges all members to support H.R. 2811 the Limit, Save, Grow Act of 2023. This legislation begins the process of repealing many of the expensive and distortionary energy subsidies jammed into the misleadingly named Inflation Reduction Act. While more is needed, this is an important start.

The estimated cost of the vast subsidies in the IRA to taxpayers has already ballooned, tripling or even quadrupling depending on which estimate one uses, in less than a...

The American Energy Alliance urges all members to vote yes on final passage of H.R. 1 the Lower Energy Costs Act.

This legislation includes common sense reforms and policy changes which will lower energy costs for Americans and encourage domestic investment in resource development as well as reducing red tape for a broad spectrum of energy and energy-related projects. With persistently high inflation, these types of actions to lower costs are all the more needed. The incremental steps...
