American producers are delivering record energy ⚡

@EIAgov projects record U.S. oil production in 2026, driven by growth in the Permian Basin and new offshore projects in the Gulf. Continued investment helps strengthen U.S. energy security and meet demand at home and abroad.

Lengthy permitting delays raise energy costs for Americans and make it harder to build the infrastructure America needs 🏗️

The Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act (BAAJA) would set clear timelines, reduce litigation delays and help get projects built.

We have a rare opening this year to fix our broken federal permitting process. When Congress returns in November, bringing this bill to the floor and sending it to the president should be their number one priority.

Permitting delays make infrastructure more expensive. McKinsey estimates that permitting delays increase construction costs by 24%–30%. https://t.co/fTZqbtUtOQ
