Rep. Barry Moore supports legislation to halt Biden's war on American energy

March 30, 2023

Washington, D.C. — Today, Rep. Barry Moore (AL-02) voted in support of H.R. 1, the Lower Energy Costs Act, sponsored by Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA). This legislation would prohibit President Biden from banning hydraulic fracturing, repeal all restrictions on the import and export of natural gas, repeal Biden's $6 billion natural gas tax, disapprove of his canceling of the Keystone XL Pipeline, and reform the permitting process to streamline federal reviews for all sectors of the economy.

"American families are struggling to make ends meet amidst skyrocketing gas, grocery and electric prices due to Biden's inflation crisis,” said Moore. "With this legislation, House Republicans will hold him accountable for his war on American energy by forcing him to unleash American energy production and lower energy costs for working families. President Biden doesn't have a plan to lower the painful prices you're paying at the gas pump or the grocery store checkout, but House Republicans do."
