Houston-based Energy Workforce & Technology Council called the U.S. Senate approval of the President’s “Big Beautiful Bill” a strong step toward restoring stability to the country’s energy sector.
It said the bill not only includes critical energy provisions but will ensure that U.S. oil and gas remains the backbone of global energy security.
“Reliable energy starts with reliable policy,” said Energy Workforce President Tim Tarpley. He said the act gives companies the stability they need to invest, innovaste and keep America’s energy workforce on the job and ready to power the next wave of American energy.
“Uncertainty over federal energy policy, including the leasing program clouded long term planning and investment during the prior administration and I am glad to see that over.”
By reinstating and reforming the vital offshore and onshore lease sales and delaying the implementation of the methane fee, Tarpley added that the bill protects the industry’s ability to invest in projects, support job growth, and ensure American energy dominance. It also strengthens the foundation for increased demand in energy services and technology, driving field activity, rig mobilization, and workforce deployment across the supply chain.
Energy Workforce commends Senate leadership for their commitment to restoring American energy dominance. We urge the House to act quickly act to send this bill to the President’s desk. We look forward to continuing to work with both the House and Senate on other issues that could not make it into this bill such as permitting reform which continues to be vital to American energy dominance.
