Palmer Opposes Biden's "America Last" Energy Policies

Statement

Date: Jan. 26, 2024
Location: Washington, DC

"The Biden administration's energy policies are not only draining people's income; they are also dangerous to the peoples' health. Just last year, it was reported that 68,000 people died in Europe classified as "excess winter deaths' because they could not afford to keep their homes adequately warmed. These were generally older people with respiratory or cardiovascular issues who could not afford their food and medicine and their high utility bills to keep their residences at a safe temperature. This decision to freeze construction of LNG facilities will make natural gas more expensive and put more lives in jeopardy in Europe and in the U.S., but that is where the Biden administration and their Democrat collaborators in Congress are leading us. They believe climate change is an existential threat, but their policies have made them a threat not only to Americans' economic and physical well-being, but also to the well-being of our allies. I will work with my Republican colleagues to roll back these dangerous policies being forced upon the American people and to bring forth policies that make energy reliable, affordable, and cleaner.

PJust two weeks ago, the House Republican Policy Committee produced a report proving our environment has, in fact, improved since the 1980s. The American people should look at the evidence themselves because the Biden administration can't be trusted to have their best interests in mind."
