Extend Trump’s Energy Revolution: Return Power to Consumers

The first 100 days of President Donald Trump’s second term have seen a dramatic transformation of America’s policies on energy and the environment. On his first day in office, the president signed the “Unleashing American Energy” executive order to promote the domestic development of oil and natural gas, eliminate electric vehicle mandates, and revoke many of President Joe Biden’s executive orders. While there is undeniable progress, much of it is fragile and in danger of being rescinded by a future president.

Without a coherent strategy to change how energy and environmental policies are made, conservatives lock themselves in a game of whack-a-mole, constantly trying to undo the big-government programs put in place by the environmentalist left. The Trump administration can change that.
