**Biden’s New Energy Roadblock: An Attempt to Stifle American Dominance**

In a startling move, the Biden administration is throwing down yet another roadblock in the pursuit of American energy dominance.

On Tuesday, the Department of Energy (DOE) released a long-awaited assessment regarding liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports which threatens to complicate the incoming Trump administration’s ambitious energy agenda.

Despite halting approvals for new export capacity to non-free trade agreement countries, the study suggests that increasing LNG exports might lead to higher domestic prices and raise emissions.


This recommendation appears to cater more to environmentalist agendas than the economic needs of American consumers and the broader energy market.

Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm made the alarming statement that "a business-as-usual approach is neither sustainable nor advisable,” echoing sentiments that many believe prioritize political posturing over practical energy solutions.

Critics, including Republican lawmakers, are denouncing the report as a misguided attempt to advance a "rush-to-green" policy that ignores the realities of energy demand and economic growth.

Republican Representative Cathy McMorris Rodgers was particularly vocal, asserting that this pause in LNG approvals serves only to appease radical environmental interests.

Interestingly, alongside the DOE’s report, S&P Global released its own analysis showing that ramping up U.S. LNG exports would not significantly affect domestic natural gas prices—directly contradicting the administration’s claims.

Moreover, the dubious foundation of the assessment is further highlighted by reports that the DOE had consulted a controversial study, claimed to be authored by a Cornell University professor, asserting that natural gas exports are worse for the environment compared to domestically mined coal.

While other nations, including potentially hostile ones, embrace energy independence, the Biden administration’s actions keep Americans dependent on restrictive policies that undermine our global energy leadership.

As President-elect Donald Trump prepares to take office, he has pledged to lift the pause on LNG export approvals immediately, aiming to unleash the full potential of the U.S. energy sector.

Industry leaders from organizations like the American Petroleum Institute are echoing this sentiment, calling for an end to what they describe as politically motivated obstructions to American energy production.

It's clear that the future of America's energy landscape is at a critical juncture, and the incoming administration is poised to reverse damage done by its predecessor.

The question remains whether the Biden administration is genuinely committed to American energy independence or merely catering to a progressive environmental agenda.

With incoming leadership promising to restore American energy dominance, many in the industry are hopeful that a return to common-sense energy policies is on the horizon.
