Realizing America's Fuel Independence
Realizing America's Fuel Independence Combatting rising energy prices is a top concern of mine. I have written and cosponsored a number of bills that seek to develop alternative fuel sources, reduce our dependence on Middle Eastern oil and support initiatives to access our own American sources of energy. The major commitments are research, exploration and conservation. We should look at all resources for alternative research but often the politically popular ideas win over less glamorous alternatives. I believe a combination of research in alternative energy sources, accessing our domestic sources of oil and natural gas, and conserving gas on an individual level will together form an effective energy policy.
