American Energy

We are sitting on an ocean of energy and paying enemies to drill it for us. That’s not a policy – that’s a navigational failure. And Van knows how to correct course.

America has more energy resources than almost any nation on Earth – coal, natural gas, oil, nuclear capacity, and more. We could be energy dominant: cheaper power at home, stronger leverage abroad, good-paying jobs for American workers. Instead, Washington spent years kneecapping domestic production in the name of ideology while families and factories paid the price at the meter and the pump.

A C-130 navigator doesn’t abandon the aircraft because the instruments are reading wrong – he corrects the heading and gets back on course. That’s what Van intends to do with American energy policy. An all-of-the-above strategy that keeps the lights on today, builds honestly toward tomorrow, and makes sure the communities that have powered this country for generations aren’t left behind in the process.

Policy Positions

• Back President Trump’s full energy dominance agenda
