America was built on a secure and reliable supply of energy. Unfortunately, we are now plagued by policies and regulations that are making it impossible for us to take advantage of our resources and expand our economy. Projects like the Keystone XL pipeline are falling victim to politics, and it is time for those of us who have a stake in our future to speak out.
The Partnership to Fuel America is a coalition of local businesses and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s Institute for 21st Century Energy advocating for a common-sense energy plan to address our country’s energy needs. To meet ever-increasing energy needs, our nation must take greater advantage of resources in the U.S. and Canada. North American energy sources will lessen the burden on business and family budgets and provide thousands of American jobs.
The Partnership to Fuel America recognizes our need for long-term energy policies that will enable sound, responsible development of U.S. energy resources and strengthen our trade relationships with Canada, our largest supplier of imported oil and natural gas. We can no longer afford to ignore good sources of energy in our own backyards.
