DENVER – Western Energy Alliance’s president, Kathleen Sgamma, will testify at a hearing entitled “Unleashing America's Energy and Mineral Potential” before the House Natural Resources Committee. Sgamma’s testimony will focus on addressing overregulation by federal agencies, delays created by excessive environmental reviews under the National Environmental Policy Act, and corrections needed within the Inflation Reduction Act. The hearing is scheduled for Wednesday, February 8th, at 10:00 a.m. ET, and will be available on the committee’s website. “We know we need more energy. The administration admitted that nearly a year ago when, after the invasion of Ukraine, the White House tried to blame our producers for not developing on, interchangeably, 9,000 leases and/or permits,” said Sgamma. “The president says he wants more American production, but where he has the most control, on tribal and federal public lands, his Interior Department is making it more difficult to do so at every turn and with every policy decision.” Sgamma’s full testimony is available on the Alliance’s website. What: House Natural Resources Committee Hearing on Unleashing America's Energy and Mineral Potential Who: Kathleen Sgamma, president of Western Energy Alliance When: Wednesday, February 8th, 10:00 a.m. ET Where: Livestream on the committee webpage. # # #
