This resolution formally recognizes natural gas produced in the United States as an affordable and "green" energy source, asserting its significant benefits for the U.S. economy and environment. It highlights natural gas's role in reducing power sector greenhouse gas emissions and overall air pollutants. The resolution also expresses strong opposition to methane emissions fees, arguing they impose a regressive tax on Americans, increase costs for consumers and businesses, and disproportionately impact natural gas-producing regions. It notes that U.S. methane emissions decreased by 10 percent between 2005 and 2020 despite a near 100 percent increase in production, attributing this to innovation. The resolution points out that the European Union has classified certain natural gas activities as "green" investments, and U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports have been crucial for European energy security , reducing prices and offering a cleaner alternative to Russian LNG. Global demand for natural gas is projected to increase significantly, underscoring its future importance. The resolution advocates for an "all of the above" energy approach to meet U.S. needs, emphasizing natural gas's necessity for achieving energy dominance and strengthening national security. It supports efforts to increase domestic natural gas production and infrastructure, remove barriers to production, and expedite the approval of new LNG export facilities in the United States, leveraging the nation's abundant natural gas reserves.
