Maintaining access to reliable and affordable energy must remain a top priority for our nation. Rising energy costs are a burden to both families and seniors, making American businesses less competitive in the global marketplace, leading to reduced job. Fortunately, recent technological developments within the energy exploration industry have allowed safe and efficient drilling of shale formations, including the Utica and Marcellus. These shale formations have the potential to provide Americans with more than a century of energy and will help lead the way toward North American energy independence. Congress must ensure that drilling is conducted in a safe and responsible manner and that landowners are treated fairly.
