Many of these elements are described in our industry\u2019s recently released 10-point plan.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Biden responded to Wirth\u2019s remarks by mocking him, <a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/homenews\/administration\/3531724-biden-calls-chevon-ceo-mildly-sensitive-in-tangle-with-oil-executive\/\">saying<\/a> that \u201che\u2019s mildly sensitive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t know they\u2019d get their feelings hurt that quickly. Look, we need more refining capacity. This idea that they don\u2019t have oil to drill and to bring up is simply not true.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mike Sommers, President and CEO of the American Petroleum Institute (API), the only national trade association that represents all aspects of America\u2019s oil and natural gas industry, released a 10-point plan last week to combat rising fuel costs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYour administration has restricted oil and natural gas development, canceled energy infrastructure projects, imposed regulatory uncertainty, and proposed new tax increases on American oil and gas producers competing globally,\u201d Sommers said in a letter. \u201cRespectfully, the American people need a different direction to solve this crisis.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>API\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/oil-experts-release-10-point-plan-for-biden-to-fix-energy-crisis-that-has-erupted-under-his-leadership\">10-point plan<\/a> includes:<\/em><\/p>\n<p>  <strong>Lift Development Restrictions on Federal Lands and Waters<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<p>The Department of the Interior (DOI) should swiftly issue a 5-year program for the Outer Continental Shelf and hold mandated quarterly onshore lease sales with equitable terms. DOI should reinstate canceled sales and valid leases on federal lands and waters.<\/p>\n<p>  <strong>Designate Critical Energy Infrastructure Projects<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<p>Congress should authorize critical energy infrastructure projects to support the production, processing, and delivery of energy. These projects would be of such concern to the national interest that they would be entitled to undergo a streamlined review and permitting process not to exceed one year.<\/p>\n<p>  <strong>Fix the NEPA Permitting Process<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<p>Your administration should revise the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process by establishing agency uniformity in reviews, limiting reviews to two years, and reducing bureaucratic burdens placed on project proponents in terms of size and scope of application submissions.<\/p>\n<p>  <strong>Accelerate LNG Exports and Approve Pending LNG Applications<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<p>Congress should amend the Natural Gas Act to streamline the Department of Energy (DOE) to a single approval process for all U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects. DOE should approve pending LNG applications to enable the U.S. to deliver reliable energy to our allies abroad.<\/p>\n<p>  <strong>Unlock Investment and Access to Capital<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<p>The Securities and Exchange Commission should reconsider its overly burdensome and ineffective climate disclosure proposal and your administration should ensure open capital markets where access is based upon individual company merit free from artificial constraints based on government-preferred investment allocations.<\/p>\n<p>  <strong>Dismantle Supply Chain Bottlenecks<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<p>You should rescind steel tariffs that remain on imports from U.S. allies as steel is a critical component of energy production, transportation, and refining. Your administration should accelerate efforts to relieve port congestion so that equipment necessary for energy development can be delivered and installed.<\/p>\n<p>  <strong>Advance Lower Carbon Energy Tax Provisions<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<p>Congress should expand and extend Section 45Q tax credits for carbon capture, utilization, and storage development and create a new tax credit for hydrogen produced from all sources.<\/p>\n<p>  <strong>Protect Competition in the Use of Refining Technologies<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<p>Your administration should ensure that future federal agency rulemakings continue to allow U.S. refineries to use the existing critical process technologies to produce the fuels needed for global energy markets.<\/p>\n<p>  <strong>End Permitting Obstruction on Natural Gas Projects<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<p>The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission should cease efforts to overstep its permitting authority under the Natural Gas Act and should adhere to traditional considerations of public needs as well as focus on direct impacts arising from the construction and operation of natural gas projects.<\/p>\n<p>  <strong>Advance the Energy Workforce of the Future<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<p>Congress and your administration should support the training and education of a diverse workforce through increased funding of work-based learning and advancement of STEM programs to nurture the skills necessary to construct and operate oil, natural gas, and other energy infrastructure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Joe Biden mocked the CEO of a major U.S. company Tuesday afternoon after the company proposed solutions to help lower gas prices as American families suffer pain at the pump.
