A group of Republican governors criticized President Joe Biden’s energy policies in a statement Monday, arguing his actions have “punished consumers.”
The governors’ rebuke comes as the nation’s average gas price has hit $3.17 a gallon.
“Since taking office, President Biden has used executive action to interfere in the market and force banks to bend their will to the left’s energy policies, including efforts to gut the oil, gas, and coal industries,” says the statement, led by Wyoming Gov. Mark Gordon. “These policies have punished consumers still recovering from the pandemic.”
In addition to Gordon, the statement was also signed by Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy, Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey, Missouri Gov. Mike Parson, Montana Gov. Greg Gianforte, Nebraska Gov. Pete Ricketts, North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, Utah Gov. Spencer Cox, and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott.
Biden signed executive orders on energy and the environment in the early weeks of his administration that have drawn lawsuits from the fossil fuel industry and some Republican governors, particularly in states reliant on oil and gas development .
One of the orders directed the U.S. Interior Department to halt new leases for oil and gas development on federal land, and it also directed the creation of a “climate finance plan” for “promoting the flow of capital toward climate-aligned investments and away from high-carbon investments.”
Another order established a working group to make recommendations to the administration on how federal agencies could incorporate “social costs of greenhouse gases” into the regulatory decision-making processes.

Biden also revoked the Keystone XL pipeline’s permit.
The actions resulted in multiple lawsuits by groups of Republican-led states.”As the world transitions to a more diverse energy future, blocking financial capital for fossil fuel projects is government overreach at its most damaging, needlessly resulting in American — and even global — energy poverty,” the governors’ statement continues. “We will reject any attempt by the Biden Administration to jeopardize American national, energy, and economic security by forcing financial institutions to restrict capital access for fossil fuel projects.”AAA attributed gas prices in part to high crude oil prices in a statement Monday.Crude oil has reached $75/bbl […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
