GOP-led energy bill passes House in rebuke of Biden's policies.
TL;DR Summary
House Republicans passed a sweeping energy bill aimed at pitting fossil fuels against President Joe Biden’s climate change agenda. The bill won’t advance in the Democratically controlled Senate, but Republicans can use it as a cudgel ahead of the 2024 election. The bill seeks to address some core Republican energy priorities from the past decade, from disapproving of Biden’s block on the Keystone XL pipeline to mandating more oil and gas lease sales and making it harder for states to block the construction of interstate pipelines that cross their borders. Biden has vowed to veto the bill, known as the Lower Energy Costs Act.
