Members of Congress & Frontline Leaders to Highlight Benefits of President Biden’s Pause on New L...

On Thursday, Members of Congress will be joined by leaders from the Gulf Coast to discuss the benefits of the Biden Administration’s pause on approvals of new LNG export facilities from non-free trade agreement countries as it reassesses the Public Interest Determination criteria the Department of Energy uses to make decisions on new exports. Members of Congress will celebrate this decision for the economic, environmental justice, and climate progress that it represents while calling out the oil and gas industry for the reckless profiteering on LNG exports even as they raise energy bills for families, represent a national security vulnerability, and accelerate the climate crisis.
