Energy

Energy independence is critical to our economic and national security.

Congressman Turner has long supported an all-of-the-above approach to domestic energy production.

Through bipartisan legislation, Congressman Turner aims to help strengthen our strategic partnerships with key allies, reduce the trade deficit and boost job growth right here at home by increasing U.S. natural gas exports.

In order to establish an energy-independent America, Congressman Turner continues to work towards lifting unreasonable restrictions on American energy production, reviving our economy, and ending our dependence on fuel sourced from unstable or hostile regimes. By promoting our own natural resource industry and continuing efforts towards cleaner energy production, we can help grow both our workforce and economy and end America's dependency on Middle Eastern oil.
