WASHINGTON – Citizens for Responsible Energy Solutions (CRES) President Heather Reams issued the following statement in support of the Energy Permitting Reform Act of 2024, released today by Sens. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) and Joe Manchin (I-W.Va.):
“Clean energy development in the United States has been crippled by burdensome federal permitting processes, onerous regulations and serial litigation from extreme interest groups,” said CRES President Heather Reams. “CRES applauds Senators John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) and Joe Manchin (I-W.Va.) for continuing to pound the drum on the importance of permitting reform and for introducing the Energy Permitting Reform Act of 2024. This bipartisan package promises to address many of the bottlenecks U.S. energy developers are facing as they work to build, deploy and expand clean, affordable, reliable American-made energy across the country.”
