WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, Congressman Matt Rosendale (MT-02) attended the House Natural Resources Subcommittee on Energy and Mineral Resources hearing titled: “Assessing Domestic Offshore Energy Reserves & Ensuring U.S. Energy Dominance.”
During the hearing, Rep. Rosendale criticized President Biden's energy policies and the approach of the radical left towards traditional fuel sources. He highlighted the reliance of the nation's power grids on baseload energy sources and emphasized the importance of offshore production for a strong American future.
Rosendale expressed disappointment at the current administration's reversal of the progress made in energy independence under President Trump. He called for a reevaluation of offshore leases and a focus on domestic energy production to reduce reliance on foreign sources and enhance national security.
The Congressman stressed the need to prioritize American citizens' energy needs over the demands of climate activists, urging the government to support traditional baseload energy sources. Rosendale's remarks underscored the importance of a balanced energy approach and the critical role of offshore production in maintaining energy security.
