While Sen. Elizabeth Warren has yet to indicate if she’ll meet with Oklahoma oil leaders during her visit to Oklahoma this weekend, the Democrat running for President vowed this week to reject all of President Trump’s energy policies. If she’s elected.
Writing in BuzzFeed, the U.S. Senator stated, “On day one, I’ll issue a sweeping executive order rolling back all of Donald Trump’s disastrous pro-fossil fuels policies, banning new fossil fuel leases offshore and on public lands, and committing the United States to rejoin the Paris Climate Accords.”
The Oklahoma native also vowed to introduce 100% Clean Energy for America legislation. She had previously vowed on day one to ban hydraulic fracturing in the U.S.
“And that’s just the beginning. It’s not enough to merely say we need to act, which is why I have put forward the most detailed climate plans of any presidential candidate,” wrote Warren.
” My plan for green manufacturing would invest in R&D and federal procurement to develop and manufacture the clean energy technology we need right here at home, creating good middle-class manufacturing jobs across our country. My Green Marshall Plan would export those American-manufactured clean energy products around the world.”
Warren is to appear Sunday in Oklahoma for a rally. Several oil and gas leaders in the state invited her to meet with them to discuss how the industry has helped Oklahoma’s economy.
