Condemning State-level energy policies that restrict domestic oil production, increase gasoline prices, and undermine American energy security and national defense.
This bill, HR1227, aims to condemn state-level energy policies that limit domestic oil production, raise gasoline prices, and threaten U.S. energy security and national defense. It was introduced on April 29, 2026, by Representative Ken Calvert and was immediately referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce and the Committee on Armed Services for further review.
The bill would affect states that have policies restricting oil production and increasing gasoline prices. By condemning these policies, the bill seeks to ensure a stable and secure domestic energy supply. This could lead to lower gasoline prices and improved energy security for the nation.
As of the latest update, HR1227 has been submitted in the House and referred to the relevant committees for consideration. The bill's future actions will depend on the committees' reviews and recommendations.
