House Republicans will officially unveil a major energy package Tuesday, making increasing domestic energy production their top legislative priority to combat rising costs and address national security concerns.
The legislation, dubbed the Lower Energy Costs Act, will be filed by House Majority Leader Steve Scalise as H.R. 1, a designation that proclaims it as the new Republican majority’s No. 1 issue in the 118th Congress.
The package would accelerate the approval process for mining and energy projects — renewable and fossil fuel alike; slash environmental regulations; lift restrictions on liquefied natural gas imports and exports; prohibit a ban on the oil-drilling practice called fracking; prevent Mr. Biden from blocking future pipelines like Keystone XL; and greenlight more oil and gas drilling on federal lands.
The GOP package is the product of three House committees — Energy and Commerce, Natural Resources, and Transportation and Infrastructure.
