Issue Position: Energy and Global Warming

Issue Position

Blake what is your stance on Energy issues? Do you support exploration / drilling for oil & gas here in the U.S.? What is your stance on Global Warming?

Our dependence of foreign oil is not only an energy issue; it is a national security and economic issue. Vast amounts of wealth is pouring out of the U.S. every day to buy foreign oil, in many cases to countries that want to do us harm.

We must open up as much domestic land (and water) as possible for oil & gas exploration. Additionally, we should pursue all other options for energy independence including wind, solar, and nuclear.

Global warming is scare tactic used by groups with a political agenda. While I support protecting the environment, the green agenda pushes it way beyond common sense, with ideas like cap and trade which would destroy American industry.
