"America is at an energy crossroads. For years, the Obama and Biden administrations layered on a steady stream of malicious regulations, permitting delays, and compliance mandates that made it harder to produce American energy. While President Donald Trump works to roll back much of that, the reality is that producers have spent decades trying to keep up with an ever-expanding federal regulatory machine, and it's taken its toll."

Captain Anthony F. Lucas helped shape Texas history by drilling the world-famous Lucas Gusher at Spindletop Hill near Beaumont, Texas. 🛢️
RRC's Public Engagement, Pipeline Safety and Pipeline Damage Prevention staff enjoyed connecting with attendees at the @TDEM Texas Division of Emergency Management Conference in Fort Worth!
Last year, President Trump set an aggressive goal: next generation nuclear reactors critical by July 4th of this year—for America's 250th.
We are on track to have multiple reactors achieve criticality to meet @POTUS' goal and accelerate the American Nuclear Renaissance.
Is there a statewide Democrat candidate not selling the climate scam?
Texans want affordable, reliable energy—not policies that make energy more expensive, more scarce, and enrich green-energy billionaires. #txlege
Talarico is trying to reinvent himself as a “moderate” now that it’s politically convenient. Texans shouldn’t let him rewrite his record. His history speaks for itself, and it’s far out of step with the values that made Texas strong.
This November, Texas must say NO to Talarico.
He said the quiet part out loud: Oil and gas workers create the wealth, Texas collects the taxes, and progressives take credit for spending it. Sounds about right. #txlege
I've made my living in the oil and gas industry for decades, but more importantly, the revenues from oil and gas directly fund the progressive policies I fight for every day. For example, oil and gas severance taxes pays for our all day pre-k programs we have all around in Texas.
Apparently, covering "every TX farm/ranch" with thousands of acres of taxpayer-funded wind and solar was acceptable when it advanced a climate agenda... But now the same candidate thinks data centers are a threat to the same land?
Make it make sense! #txlege
The #ClimateCrisis will devistate TX farmers and ranchers if we don’t stop it. As a TX State Senator, I will push a bill to help equip every TX farm/ranch with wind turbines &/or solar panels to both mitigate #ClimateChange and to help farmers/ranchers economically thrive.
Recognizing 200 years of combined and outstanding service to the RRC!
Before today’s Open Meeting, Chairman Wright and Commissioners Craddick and Christian acknowledged agency employees who earned Outstanding Service Awards.
Funny how the people who spent years cheering industrial-scale wind and solar projects across rural Texas suddenly discovered concerns about land use, visual blight, and grid impacts when data centers showed up.
Democrats are hypocrites. #txlege
Oil prices have cratered, again. This means a lot of oil field workers will lose their jobs. This yet another reason why we need more wind and solar power, b/c Wall Street can't stop the wind from blowing or the sun from shining. 🌬🌞🌎
This is communism masquerading as anti-AI activism. Under this logic, the government could claim the authority to take over any technological breakthrough it deems important. Today it's artificial intelligence; tomorrow it's energy, medicine, agriculture, or the next world-changing innovation. The outcome wouldn't be "sharing the benefits"—it would be government control, less innovation, and a direct attack on the free-market system that fuels progress.
