Anti-American environmental groups have been cashing in on American taxpayers through the Equal Access to Justice Act. They sue, leftist administrations settle, and judges hand them millions.Ā
@Natresources is exposing this scam and pushing for real reform.

The administrationās actionĀ Ā to boost domestic coal production for defense readinessĀ underscore that energy security is national security.

States are using "climate superfunds" to punish energy companies for lawful activity and American consumers are footing the bill. I've introduced the Stop Climate Shakedown Act to put it to an end.

Fixing permitting isn't a choice between the environment and the economy. America can protect both. The current system protects neither and hurts everyone.
