The Subcommittee on Energy and Mineral Resources oversees American energy production and mining on federal lands -- both onshore and offshore. Republicans on the Subcommittee are committed to the environmentally responsible development of America's vast energy and mineral resources that will expand our domestic energy supply, create new American jobs, lessen our dependence on foreign sources of energy and minerals, and generate revenue for federal and state treasuries.
Republicans support an all-of-the-above energy approach that includes alternative energy sources such as wind, solar, hydropower, biomass and nuclear, along with American-made oil, clean coal and natural gas.
