Congresswoman Lauren Boebert’s bill aimed at protecting American energy producers received an important hearing in the House Natural Resources Subcommittee on Energy and Mineral Resources. On July 24, 2023, the BLM issued a proposed rule entitled Fluid Mineral Leases and Leasing Process. The proposed mandate would formally implement provisions from the partisan Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), which increased the royalty rate for production on federal lands while also increasing and creating new fees for producers.

Today, Congresswoman Lauren Boebert reintroduced the Protecting Our Kids from Harmful Research Act to prevent the use of taxpayer funds for unethical, experimental gender research on children under the age of 18. Her bill is the House companion to Senator Mike Lee’s bill that was introduced in the Senate. The NIH Sexual and Gender Minorities Research Office (SGMRO) has awarded grant money to four pediatric clinics to study hormonal interventions on children with healthy bodies as young as 8 years old. This means that due to a feeling of discomfort, girls as young as 8 could receive high-dose testosterone solely on the basis of “gender identifying” as a boy. The Biden administration recently renewed and extended this research until 2026.

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.

Our country is at a turning point. Inflation continues to drive up prices across the nation, our border crisis is as severe as it has ever been, and our closest ally, Israel, is at war. We have a President who keeps putting America last, a Senate that puts Ukraine first, and a House with no leader. Despite the numerous obstacles we face, I remain confident that we will overcome them and ultimately deliver the results that you, the American people, deserve. It all begins with ensuring that we have a patriotic Speaker of the House who will put America first and put our country back on track.
