Today, I’m joined by 25 colleagues from 19 states to fight the #BidenBan. bit.ly/3t1Qijo
Banning energy leasing on federal lands would be catastrophic for western states that are already reeling from the decline in energy usage brought on by the pandemic and continued volatility in energy markets.
It’s a one-two punch that means disaster for energy jobs, families and communities. That’s why I authored a bill prohibiting any bans on federal leasing without the consent of Congress.
50% of oil and nearly all natural gas production occurs on federal land in WY. Our schools, roads, hospitals and other critical government services and infrastructure rely on the tax revenue generated by energy resources.
Banning energy leasing on fed lands will destroy western economies and force us to rely on foreign countries for our energy needs. I urge my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to vote in favor of American energy independence.

21 Jan
A mere 24 hours ago, President Biden stood before America promising to unify our nation. Yet on day one, he took divisive actions to devastate Wyoming’s economy.
Make no mistake about it, the Biden Ban is a strike on the heart of Wyoming jobs, families and communities. His actions to appease the radical left will be borne disproportionately on the shoulders of states like Wyoming with high amounts of federal lands.
This unilateral action will kill jobs, raise gas and energy prices, and further harm our ability to fund our schools, roads, hospitals, and other critical infrastructure. The price of this ban is simply one the people of Wyoming cannot afford.
