“We are confident that any even-handed consideration will lead [Energy Secretary Ernest] Moniz to the same conclusion that so many experts have already embraced: that allowing the country to sell its bounty to the world will leave it and its trading partners better off. We hope the new energy secretary reaches that conclusion swiftly…”-- Editorial Board, Washington Post

“Proposals that seek to limit LNG or coal or any other product would have far-reaching negative effects on the United States and should be rejected. Such restrictions limit economic opportunities and stifle job growth rather than provide a source of increased economic growth.”-- National Association of Manufacturers

“Expanded markets for LNG represent an incredible opportunity for the U.S. to create jobs and spur economic growth right here at home… Our plentiful natural gas reserves are a game-changer for our economic and energy security, and a clear economic win for America and for my home state of Louisiana. This definitely is our energy moment – all we have to do is seize the opportunity.”-- U.S. Senator Mary Landrieu (D-LA) , Chair of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee

“We should not force our allies to remain dependent on Putin for their energy needs… expediting approval of natural gas exports is one clear step the U.S. can take to stand by our allies and stand up to Russian aggression, while creating American jobs at the same time.”-- U.S. Representative John Boehner (R-OH), Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives
