And that growth shows no signs of slowing. More LNG capacity means more American energy reaching a global market that is asking for it, with Louisiana continuing to handle more than 60% of U.S. LNG exports.
Last year, for the first time in history, a country exported more than 100 million tonnes of liquefied natural gas—and that country was the United States. And this year, we are on track to surpass 120 million tonnes.
That remarkable growth is being driven by companies like Caturus who recently announced a massive expansion of its LNG export facility on the Gulf Coast.
Louisiana’s energy future is creating new opportunities for communities across our state.
During a meeting with @SWLAAlliance, @SpeakerJohnson highlighted Louisiana’s natural resources, skilled workforce and growing LNG industry as important drivers of America’s energy and economic future.
With LNG’s U.S. footprint expected to double by 2031, Southwest Louisiana is well-positioned to attract continued investment, support good jobs and help strengthen American energy leadership.

America leads the world in oil and natural gas production, and it’s the hardworking Americans supporting our energy industry who make that possible every day.
Their work keeps our nation and countries around the world supplied with American energy.
The United States has become the world's largest LNG exporter, transforming global energy markets and America's role in supporting its allies. As Europe and other partners diversify their energy supplies, U.S. LNG has become a strategic alternative to less reliable suppliers.
Read our recent conversation with Senator John Kennedy as he discusses how Louisiana's LNG industry is strengthening U.S. energy security and supporting allies abroad.

As LNG production and exports continue to increase, so does the importance of investing in the institutions that support the industry. Research, workforce development, and safety will remain essential to sustaining long-term growth.
Our July newsletter features Senator John Kennedy discussing the National Center of Excellence for LNG Safety and its significance for Louisiana and the broader LNG industry.

Louisiana is leading America’s HISTORIC energy growth as our nation’s largest LNG exporter, accounting for nearly two-thirds of all exports. Thanks to @POTUS’s America First agenda, we are unleashing our energy potential & helping to supply our allies abroad. 🇺🇸
The United States set an LNG export record in 2025, with Louisiana continuing to lead the nation in exports.
In our latest newsletter, Senator John Kennedy argues that reducing regulatory barriers and restoring certainty for energy investment have helped strengthen Louisiana's LNG industry and position the state for continued growth.

Global energy markets remain fragile, making reliable energy production and the infrastructure that supports it essential to energy dominance.
In a recent commentary, Charles Melancon explores how continued investment in LNG exports, pipelines, and other energy infrastructure can strengthen America's economy, support allies abroad, and reinforce the nation's role in global energy markets.

LNG is projected to become the second-largest net export industry in the United States within the next 5 years.
A new S&P Global study projects more than $1 trillion in investment across the LNG supply chain through 2040, support for approximately 555,000 jobs each year, and $1.4 trillion in GDP.
It’s great news for Louisiana, where much of the nation's LNG export capacity is located. These projections point to continued investment in major projects, growing demand for skilled workers, and lasting economic impacts for communities across the state.

More than $4 billion in projected property tax revenue is headed to Cameron Parish over the next decade as LNG facilities begin transitioning onto the local tax rolls.
Those revenues create opportunities that extend well beyond the energy sector. They can be used to improve roads, water systems, and transportation infrastructure, strengthen hurricane and coastal resilience, and make long-term investments that support both local communities and the industries that drive the region's economy.

Congratulations to @RepJuliaLetlow on her victory in Louisiana's U.S. Senate runoff.
Last year, we spoke with Rep. Letlow about the importance of LNG exports, energy infrastructure, and the role Louisiana plays in strengthening America's energy leadership. As she prepares to represent Louisiana in the Senate, it's a timely conversation to revisit as the state continues to lead the nation in LNG exports and attract billions of dollars in new energy investment.

The reopening of the Strait of Hormuz may ease immediate concerns, but recent events have highlighted how quickly disruptions can put one of the world's most important energy corridors in the spotlight.
That's one reason U.S. LNG exports have become increasingly important. By expanding global supply and providing allies with reliable sources of energy, American LNG helps reduce dependence on unstable regions and strengthens energy security around the world.

When discussions about LNG focus solely on exports, an important part of the story gets overlooked: supply chains.
From equipment suppliers to workforce training programs, major energy projects support a much broader network of businesses than many people realize.

When energy infrastructure comes under threat overseas, the value of American energy production becomes impossible to ignore.
Louisiana's LNG industry helps deliver reliable energy to allies around the world while supporting jobs, investment, and economic growth here at home. Recent events in the Middle East are a reminder that energy security and economic security go hand in hand.

Louisiana exports more than 60% of all U.S. LNG, but the real story is what that means on the ground.
Tens of billions of dollars in new investment are flowing into the state through projects in Cameron and Calcasieu Parishes, supporting workers and communities across Louisiana.
We recently sat down with Melissa Landry to discuss what's driving that growth and what's needed to keep it going.

Day one, we ended Biden's disastrous LNG export ban.
Now, under @POTUS, the U.S. leads in LNG exports—with no signs of slowing down.
That is American Energy Dominance. And Golden Pass LNG is just one example of this.
The Commonwealth LNG project is another major milestone for American LNG production, all possible thanks to President Trump!
This was the first project approval after @POTUS ended Biden's reckless freeze on LNG permits—reinforcing America’s leadership in LNG exports.
As the midterms approach, lawmakers in both parties should focus on the policies that actually bring down prices: expand energy infrastructure, approve pipelines, streamline permitting, reduce unnecessary restrictions and produce more energy at home while exporting more to our friends abroad.
