FAIRFAX, VA – Americans for Limited Government President Rick Manning today issued the following statement praising President Donald Trump’s call for “American energy dominance” in a speech today at the Department of Energy:
“President Trump is taking the lead on restoring America as an energy powerhouse in the world, by ending the war on the coal, leaving the ill-considered Paris accord, removing regulatory impediments to extracting energy resources including opening up federal lands, building the Keystone and Dakota Access pipelines, among many other measures. Simply by changing America’s energy goal from merely being independent to being dominant tells the world that America’s back, capitalism works and free markets are the path to economic vibrancy. While other nations choose the path of economic suicide, Trump’s America will be moving forward growing and leading the world to a better, more prosperous future. President Trump is right, America is in the driver’s seat.”
