Congresswoman Lauren Boebert introduced H.R. 6009, the Restoring American Energy Dominance Act, to counter the Bureau of Land Management's proposed Fluid Mineral Leases and Leasing Process rule aimed at crippling American energy producers with burdensome costs and regulations. Through overreaching executive orders and unauthorized mandates, the Biden administration has killed good-paying energy jobs in rural America, failed to address high gas prices, reduced access to reliable and affordable energy supplies, and stifled economic growth.

Big win today as my fish bill passed the Natural Resources Committee with unanimous, bipartisan support. This crucial step brings us closer to safeguarding four endangered fish species and providing long-term certainty for 2,500 water and power users that benefit from the program and would have to perform extremely burdensome Section 7 consultations for all 2,500 individual projects without it. These projects, serve various needs, utilizing over 3.69 million acre-feet of water each year. With strong bicameral, bipartisan momentum and significant stakeholder support, I'm confident that this bill will become law and this important program will be reauthorized
