Rough road to “energy dominance” after GOP kneecaps wind and solar
As the One Big Beautiful Bill Act squeaked its way through Congress earlier this month, its supporters heralded what they described as a new era for American energy and echoed what has become a familiar phrase among President Donald Trump's supporters.
Congress has taken decisive action to advance President Trump's energy dominance agenda," said American Petroleum Institute President and CEO Mike Sommers in a statement after the House passed the bill.
Republicans concurred, with legislators ranging from Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks of Iowa, chair of the Conservative Climate Caucus, to Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Rep. Brett Guthrie of Kentucky releasing statements after the bill's passage championing its role in securing energy dominance."
