WESTERN CAUCUS CHAIRMAN CHRIS CANNON LEADS HOUSE DEBATE ON ENERGY INDEPENDENCE

Congressman Cannon, last night, as Chairman of the Western Caucus, led House Republicans in highlighting the availability of domestic energy. Congressman Cannon, along with Congressmen Smith, Peterson, and Bishop, showed their colleagues the availability of energy in America.

Congressman Cannon will soon introduce legislation allowing the President to bypass regulation and authorize the immediate extraction of oil from shale. Shale oil contains 3 to 5 times the amount of oil as Saudi Arabia and can bring gas prices down this year.
