"The reality is that tariffs harm most manufacturing jobs. Roughly 60% of all goods imported are intermediary goods or materials used for domestic manufacturing, according to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Many pipeline-manufacturing companies import specialty casings for oil and gas projects. How ironic for any Republican to call for an 'all of the above' energy policy yet support making hydrocarbons more difficult and expensive to produce through protectionism."

"A cleaner and more cost-effective energy future is within reach through a competitive framework. Competitive power markets and power suppliers are leading the way by saving customers money, spurring innovation, retiring older, higher emitting resources, and investing in new low and zero emission resources, and accelerating environmental progress."

"Should the Court's decision provide greater certainty about the outer limits of federal regulatory authority, this would help clarify where federal authority ends and exclusive state regulatory authority begins. This would put the onus on state governments to adopt conservation measures within their jurisdiction, but would also make it easier for states to act."

"The analysis found that if the U.S. expands transmission at more than double the recent historical pace (roughly 2.3% a year), greenhouse-gas emissions would be roughly 800 million tons lower in 2030 compared with a scenario where transmission expands at just a 1% pace."

"Just about anyone could have cut the pipeline, but whoever it was, they wanted to make sure the Nord Stream pipelines would not be an option for a long time."

"The Jones Act, also known as the Merchant Marine Act of 1920, is protectionism at its worst. The law says waterborne cargo between U.S. points must be carried by ships that are primarily built, owned and crewed by Americans. This raises shipping prices, while shifting cargo to trucks, which are less efficient and worse for the environment. The law also explains why wintry Boston imports Russian liquefied natural gas."

"From the gas used for cars to the diesel used to operate farm equipment and transport goods across the country, the lives of Americans benefit tremendously through these fuels. And when prices surge to especially high levels, this inevitably causes significant harm, especially to the poorest Americans."
