house 01/16/2025 - 119th Congress
We are proposing the Declaration of Energy Independence Act, seeking to amend the Mineral Leasing Act by adjusting royalty rates and reducing fees for oil and gas extraction on federal lands. Our goal with this legislation is to bolster domestic energy production while ensuring fair economic terms for energy companies and the government, thus promoting energy independence and economic stability.

Why are we calling this energy independence when it's just gifting Big Oil a tax break?

Lowering these rates is just common sense to maintain our competitive edge.

Finally, a move to boost domestic energy production and cut bureaucratic costs!
