At this year's Energy Leadership Summit, our July CRESponsible Leader, @SenCapito, shared video remarks highlighting the importance of strengthening America's energy future through innovation, infrastructure and an all-of-the-above energy strategy.

Sen. Capito's leadership in advancing reliable, affordable and secure American energy continues to move our nation forward.

[Citizens for Responsible Energy Solutions (CRES) @CRESenergy]

America's ability to build new energy infrastructure is essential to meeting growing demand and maintaining our energy dominance. Through her leadership on permitting reform, @SenCapito is championing policies that help bring critical energy projects online more efficiently.

Check out our latest blog to learn why she's July's CRESponsible Leader of the Month. https://t.co/ymz1FNCwcx

Solar leases let farmers keep ownership of their land, earn steady income and stay farmers.

That's not a threat to America's natural resources. It's how we build our energy future without giving up on either. Read more ⬇️

OP-ED: Taking away solar leases won’t save farms. It’ll bury them https://t.co/nokkFCqZ0Q

Powering America's future starts with smart energy policy.

CRES Director of Government Relations @_Ryan_McManus_ joined the Hispanic Lobbyists Association to discuss rising electricity demand, data centers and the importance of permitting reform to ensure reliable, affordable energy.

Thanks to HLA for bringing together this important discussion.

Sen. Capito is a vocal advocate for streamlining environmental reviews, reducing regulatory uncertainty and advancing solutions that strengthen America's energy security while supporting economic growth. In a recent hearing on permitting reform, she emphasized the opportunity we have to deliver “meaningful, bipartisan legislation” to address these challenges and accelerate the projects needed to meet growing energy demand.

This month's CRESponsible Leader @SenCapito has made permitting reform a cornerstone of her energy agenda. As Chair of the Senate @EPWGOP, she is leading bipartisan efforts to modernize the federal permitting process, helping critical energy and infrastructure projects move more efficiently from proposal to construction.

The road to a competitive AI buildout that protects local communities and keeps prices affordable while ensuring America wins the AI race will take more than slogans and talking points.

It will require: Hyperscalers paying their fair share → Communities getting transparency and a seat at the table → All forms of energy being invested in to deliver affordable, abundant electricity that powers both our communities and America's AI future

In a recent @WSJ piece, Greg Beard, director of @DOE_EDF confirms that America��s Nuclear Renaissance is already on the way, a key to meeting rising electricity demand and maintaining U.S. energy leadership.

CRES is proud of the work being done at @ENERGY to support a continued focus on deploying large-scale reactors and advancing next-generation nuclear technologies to strengthen grid reliability, drive economic growth, and power America's future. ⚛️⚡

[U.S. Department of Energy @ENERGY]

Thanks to President Trump, America’s Nuclear Renaissance is underway!

“[The U.S. is] deploying large reactors at scale and investing in the advanced and small reactors that will power the next generation of industry.”

[Energy and Commerce Committee @HouseCommerce]

⚡️ Four American advanced nuclear reactors reached criticality, exceeding @POTUS’ 2025 executive order!

Nuclear power is vital to America’s grid, and thanks to legislation like the ADVANCE Act, we are working towards bringing more online to deliver affordable and reliable energy to all Americans.

[Citizens for Responsible Energy Solutions (CRES) @CRESenergy]

CRES is proud to recognize @SenCapito as July's CRESponsible Leader of the month! As Chair of the Senate @EPWGOP, Sen. Capito is a champion for strengthening America's energy security through permitting reform, infrastructure investment and next-generation nuclear energy. We are proud to recognize her leadership this July!

Alaska's energy challenges won't be solved by a single resource.

An all-of-the-above strategy that combines natural gas, hydropower, geothermal and other innovative solutions can help deliver affordable, reliable energy across the state. That's the kind of pragmatic energy approach CRES supports. ⚡

🚨 A major milestone for U.S. nuclear energy!

The Palisades restart has transitioned from large-scale construction to final testing and operational readiness—bringing America closer to the first restart effort of a retired commercial nuclear plant.

[Congressman Jim Baird @RepJimBaird]

Nuclear energy is a secure and reliable source of power. Currently, the U.S. has 96 commercial nuclear reactors producing 20% of our nation's energy. ⚛️⚡️

With energy needs growing by the day, nuclear should be a massive part of the solution.

Let’s dive into how a nuclear reactor works!

[Office of Nuclear Energy | US Department of Energy @GovNuclear]

FOUR REACTORS CRITICAL BY THE 4TH! 🎉

On July 4 at 12:19 AM MDT, @AaloAtomics’ Aalo-X microreactor achieved initial criticality at @INL, marking the fourth @ENERGY-authorized reactor to go critical this year.

Congratulations to Aalo Atomics on reaching this historic milestone!

Beneath the Gulf of America: tens of billions of barrels once thought unreachable, now unlocked by American engineering.

15% of U.S. oil production. $10B+ in new investment. Carbon intensity ~46% below the global average.

CRES thanks @RepPeteStauber for his leadership in securing America's mineral and energy future — from overturning an expansive mining ban in Northern Minnesota to passing the Critical Mineral Dominance Act to chairing hearings that keep American energy production moving forward. Minnesota is stronger for it, and so is America’s energy future.

[Citizens for Responsible Energy Solutions (CRES) @CRESenergy]

CRES is proud to recognize @RepPeteStauber as June’s CRESponsible Leader of the month! As Chair of the House @NatResources Subcommittee on Energy and Mineral Resources, Rep. Stauber has been a tireless advocate for unlocking America's vast resources and securing our nation's energy future. We are honored to recognize his leadership this June!

[Citizens for Responsible Energy Solutions (CRES) @CRESenergy]

Achieving American energy abundance and dominance won't happen without fixing the broken federal permitting system.

"Today, a single environmental review under NEPA takes about four years on average. Construction cannot start without first spending years in the regulatory penalty box." – @SenJohnBarrasso in @washingtonpost

Over 100 NEPA lawsuits filed every year. $1.5 trillion in frozen infrastructure. A process designed for delay, and reform is long overdue.

.@RepPeteStauber is one of Congress's fiercest champions for American critical mineral production. 🦾

This year alone, he passed the Critical Mineral Dominance Act through the House to fast-track domestic mining approvals and secured President Trump's signature overturning a Biden-era mining ban in Minnesota’s Duluth Complex, the largest untapped copper-nickel deposit in the world.

Strengthening domestic mineral production is foundational to securing U.S. supply chains and powering an all-of-the-above energy strategy, and Rep. Stauber is delivering results. ‼️

The workers, engineers and local leaders at the Crane Clean Energy Center aren't debating whether America needs more energy. They're focused on providing it.

In her latest op-ed in the @dcexaminer, CRES President & CEO, @Heather_Reams, reflects on her visit to @CEGCleanEnergy's Crane Clean Energy Center alongside @SenMcCormickPA and what she found: a facility that has moved past policy conversations and into real-world action.
