Washington, D.C. – Today, the American Exploration & Production Council (AXPC) praised the House of Representatives for passing two important pieces of bipartisan legislation to strengthen America’s energy security. The bills include the GRID Power Act led by Congressman Troy Balderson and the Promoting Cross-border Energy Infrastructure Act led by Congresswoman Julie Fedorchak, and represent growing bipartisan momentum in Congress to comprehensively fix America’s broken permitting system through common-sense reforms.
“America urgently needs smart, durable solutions to fix our broken permitting system and meet growing power demand, and AXPC applauds the House for taking an important step towards addressing these challenges by passing Congressman Balderson’s GRID Power Act and Congresswoman Fedorchak’s Promoting Cross-border Energy Infrastructure Act,” said Anne Bradbury, AXPC CEO. “By accelerating the deployment of dispatchable, resilient power generation and modernizing the permitting process for critical cross-border energy infrastructure, these bipartisan bills will help ensure access to abundant, reliable, and affordable energy for American families and businesses.”
