America invented nuclear power, built the shale revolution and sold LNG to the world. It took energy to power America's first 250 years, it will take energy to power the next 250.

@jharrell's new op-ed in @DailyCaller lays out the lessons from 250 years of energy dominance 👇

[ClearPath Action @ClearPathAction]

American energy security wins when we build allied supply chains. @RepYoungKim's DOMINANCE Act is a critical step toward keeping those supply chains out of adversaries' hands. 🇺🇸

[ClearPath Action @ClearPathAction]

Cement has been made the same way for 200 years. American innovators are changing that.

Companies like @BrimstoneEnergy are producing American-made cement at lower cost and with less emissions. @RepMaxMiller's IMPACT Act 2.0 is how innovations like this scale.

Since 2015, China has poured $446 billion into global energy finance. The U.S.? $45 billion.

We can't out-subsidize China, but we can out-strategize them. Energy Security Pacts are how America wins the global energy race.

[ClearPath Action @ClearPathAction]

The DOMINANCE Act puts energy security at the center of U.S. foreign policy and gives American innovators the partnerships they need to compete and win.

[Harrison Ford @HarrisonFordLA]

May the fourth be with you

[ClearPath Action @ClearPathAction]

To compete with China and win on global energy, American companies need the right tools. The Energy Security Pacts Act, introduced by @SenatorRicketts & @ChrisCoons counters China, strengthens critical mineral supply chains and advances American energy leadership.

𝗡𝗘𝗪 𝗢𝗣-𝗘𝗗: American energy dominance starts with innovation. ClearPath's Head of Policy Lisa Epifani lays out how Congress can connect basic research and applied energy programs into one unified strategy to beat China and win the global energy race.

[Jeremy Harrell @jharrell]

For America to win the global energy race, we need to innovate fast, build here and sell globally. That means faster permitting, stronger export tools and a strategy to outcompete China.

My latest for @RiponSociety: https://t.co/bbHBXxguQr

[ClearPath Action @ClearPathAction]

The race for global energy leadership will be won by the country that can innovate & build the next generation of clean energy technologies. America has the playbook: innovate fast, build here and sell globally with tools that help U.S. energy compete abroad.

[U.S. Export-Import Bank @EximBankUS]

Supply chain resilience is ECONOMIC security.

Critical minerals are the backbone of U.S. energy, defense & manufacturing—shaping global strategy in 2026.

Under @POTUS, EXIM is helping U.S. exporters win and supporting investments that strengthen secure supply chains.

[Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent @SecScottBessent]

Very proud to attend the swearing in of @DFCgov @DFC_CEO Ben Black and @EximBankUS Chairman @JJovanovicUSA by @VP @JDVance.

@POTUS @realDonaldTrump’s selection of these two dynamic leaders demonstrates well the incredible depth of young talent within the Trump Administration. DFC and ExIm are in smart, capable hands.

[Ben Black @DFC_CEO]

Congress just passed the NDAA — another step to reauthorizing @DFCgov.

This couldn't have been achieved w/o bipartisan support from @whitehouse @SenatorRisch @SenatorShaheen @RepBrianMast @RepGregoryMeeks. Thanks to all SFRC and HFAC members and staff.

[ClearPath Action @ClearPathAction]

NEW from @jharrell in @WashTimes: Energy dominance means building more domestically, selling more globally.

In a world of growing demand, having energy is power. The United States faces a dual threat meeting domestic demand and competing for global market share. China has been quietly reshaping the global energy landscape, exponentially building more on their soil, and outspending the U.S. nearly ten-to-one in overseas energy finance.

By every metric, China is building more energy than we are. And that energy is fueling growth across their economy.

The U.S. never will, nor should it, try to out-subsidize China to compete. But the U.S. must treat energy finance as a core pillar of national security, not an afterthought.

The good news: America has the tools to win, but only if we sharpen and use them.

[Luke Bolar @ljbolar]

American energy dominance is a phrase we hear often, one we like, and with the right strategy, it is achievable. The strategy in short: America should innovate, make energy here, and sell it globally. @TheNatlInterest

Great 2B @CSIS to talk about US-Japan #CleanEnergy. The best thing the US can do as a strong partner is to #LetAmericaBuild! Remove barriers & streamline permitting to build more projects w/ world-changing US energy innovation + strengthen @DFCgov @EximBankUS > @ClearPathAction
