We know how to do it. We have the technology. We should be relying on ourselves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Manchin stated,&nbsp;[relevant remarks begin around 4:20] \u201cI say that we can basically do more for ourselves. We\u2019ve been energy independent for the first time in 67 years. Why can\u2019t we do more? Why can\u2019t we produce more? We\u2019ve got plenty of natural gas. My state \u2014 beautiful state of West Virginia has an ocean of natural gas under it. If they\u2019d just let us build a pipeline, we could get the product to market. And why don\u2019t we do more drilling and why don\u2019t we do more basically production in the United States? I\u2019m not depending on OPEC. I\u2019m not depending on other countries for my energy anymore. We know how to do it. We have the technology.
