U.S. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum at RSC Lunch

I was honored to host U.S. Interior Secretary and Chairman of the National Energy Dominance Council Doug Burgum at this week's Republican Study Committee (RSC) Lunch. Secretary Burgum discussed his goals to unleash American energy, including oil, gas, and coal, through enhanced leasing and permitting efficiencies. He also discussed how utilizing and strengthening energy production can reduce the nation's deficit.

It is refreshing to have energy champions back in charge who are committed to utilizing America's abundant energy resources to drive the next technological revolution. As Chairman of the RSC, I am committed to leading my colleagues in working alongside the administration to restore American energy dominance.
