WASHINGTON, D.C. (November 7, 2024) – Today, the Partnership to Address Global Emissions (PAGE) issued the below statement in response to this week’s election results.
PAGE congratulates President-elect Trump, as well as newly elected and re-elected Members of Congress. We are committed to working with the new Administration and Congress on critical energy and climate policies.
The results continue to demonstrate the overwhelming, bipartisan support for U.S. energy security and the need for meaningful permitting reform. Notably, Americans support the critical role of natural gas as a decarbonization tool. In fact, 76% of voters want the country to steadily transition to clean energy by using all options currently available, including natural gas, to keep energy affordable and reliable.
Now is the time for policymakers to act on voter consensus by unleashing U.S. natural gas, which will drive down energy costs and emissions while bolstering energy security. PAGE will remain actively engaged with stakeholders across the political spectrum to ensure that comprehensive permitting reform that includes timely LNG export approvals and pipeline infrastructure remains a legislative priority so that we can fully realize the potential of U.S. natural gas.
