The Path to Prosperity: Common Sense Energy Policies The Vote4Energy campaign supports common sense, comprehensive energy policies that foster job growth, increase government revenues and ensure U.S. energy security. We encourage our elected leaders and aspiring officeholders to support the following policy perspectives that will help reenergize America: - Increase access to oil and natural gas resources
- Ensure common sense regulations
- Improve and accelerate the leasing and permitting process
- Approve pipeline infrastructure for Canadian oil sands
- Avoid punitive taxes
If these positive energy policies are followed, U.S oil and natural gas production could generate more than 1.4 million jobs, $800 billion in additional government revenue and make 10 million barrels worth of added daily oil and natural gas available by 2030- all while making America more energy secure by providing 100 percent of U.S. liquid fuel needs from North American sources within 15 years.

Historic Downtown/Middleton Street, Robbins, NC 27325 Recent News The Washington Post Quick, name the most significant American innovation of the past ten years. How about hydraulic fracturing? Some fracking critics use bad science Associated Press Critics of fracking often raise alarms about groundwater pollution, air pollution, and cancer risks, and there are still many uncertainties. But some of the claims have little — or nothing— to back them. What People Are Saying “The oil and natural gas industry has been a major job creator at a time when overall U.S. job creation has stagnated. It has created thousands of jobs while other industries have been losing jobs or, at best, holding steady.” – Jack Gerard, API President Don’t forget to like us on and follow us on to add your voice to the Vote4Energy effort | |
