Washington, DC – Today, American Exploration & Production Council CEO Anne Bradbury issued the following statement after the passage of the Unlocking our Domestic LNG Potential Act (H.R. 7176) :
“The House of Representatives took an important bipartisan stand against the Biden administration’s nonsensical US LNG export approval freeze. Rep. August Pfluger’s (TX-11) Unlocking our Domestic LNG Potential Act would rightly ensure that US LNG export approvals do not become a political football.
“Exporting US LNG is simultaneously beneficial for the American economy, our allies’ energy security, and the environment, and it’s imperative that the Senate pass this bill and send it to the President’s desk.”
