API leader contends elections were a victory for energy industry

 

“When you dig deeply into the House and Senate results, this election was actually an overwhelming victory for U.S. energy leadership and the millions of jobs and economic benefits our industry provides.”

 

As the old saying goes, “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade.” And that’s apparently what the leader of the American Petroleum Institute believes as he told a recent conference in Texas that excluding President Trump’s apparent reeelection loss, the elections were quite a victory for the nation’s energy industry.

The observation by Mike Sommers, chief executive of the API came during a  recent virtual symposium held by the Texas Energy Museum. The Beaumont Enterprise reported Sommers was among speakers who analyzed energy markets and policy goals.
