2024 ROCKED — we won a republican trifecta AND I married my best friend! 🇺🇸💍
Anyone who’s met Luke knows he’s the best guy, and I’m the luckiest woman to now be his wife!
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.
False. Just 15% of CA primary energy consumption comes from ‘renewables.’ More than 75% of CA energy consumption is from oil and gas — that’s higher than the national rate.
It is true that CA has embraced anti-hydrocarbon policies. The result?
CA has the highest electricity rates in the continental U.S., the highest gas prices, and the highest adjusted poverty rate in America.
I wouldn’t be bragging if that was my state.
We can’t achieve American energy dominance without a massive increase in the skilling of our workforce.
But this is America.
We are going to see that happen.
Honored to spend time with the Lineman Program students at Nash Community College in North Carolina.
The Trump administration is modernizing America’s electric grid which means investing in our infrastructure and supporting our hardworking linemen!
🇺🇸@SecretaryWright visits hardworking linemen in training:
"We got a lot to do to expand our electricity grid and modernize it as well, so we need as many new linemen as we can get in this country!"
Yesterday in Ohio, we broke ground on a new partnership to build more than 9 gigawatts of natural gas power generation and a data center complex that will provide thousands of jobs and result in LOWER electricity costs.
California's electricity prices are 2x HIGHER than the national average.
~20% of California’s oil refinery capacity is shutting down due to two refinery closures.
Over 60% of California's crude oil is imported from foreign sources.
California has the HIGHEST gas prices in the country—nearly $2 more than the national average.
California has the HIGHEST gas taxes & fees in the country at over 70 cents/gal.
…Which ones of these are "fake"?
Governor, California has strangled its own oil and gas production as well as its refinery capacity, driving up CA energy prices to 40% higher than the country as a whole — 100% higher in the case of electricity prices. California imports the majority of its oil from overseas, including the Middle East, and consumes more hydrocarbons than most other states. California is losing residents faster than any state in the country.
Your comments are either ignorant or insincere. Either way, that’s not energy, economic OR environmental leadership…that’s outsourcing reality.
I chaired the UN Security Council session on energy, critical minerals & security.
It is clear that energy is how we grow our economies. It is how we innovate, power our daily lives, and secure our nations.
Energy brings stability, freedom, and the chance for a better future.
.@SecretaryWright: "We want to help every state, but it is political choices that leaders make that make energy expensive...New England states have a crazy high electricity price for one reason—they blocked a natural gas pipeline that would go from Pennsylvania through NY state."
