                               RESOLUTION


 
 Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the United 
   States should support the safe and responsible development of its 
energy resources via drilling, in an effort to maintain a robust energy 
   supply chain which promotes national security, safeguards against 
     energy scarcity, and reduces energy poverty for all Americans.

Whereas it is in the national security interests of the United States to 
        maintain a strong domestic energy supply;
Whereas the timely delivery of affordable energy domestically and 
        internationally requires an advanced and robust domestic energy supply;
Whereas energy workers and businesses require clear and supportive Federal 
        policy to adequately maintain and develop the domestic energy supply 
        chain to meet growing energy needs;
Whereas recent technological advances in energy resource exploration, drilling, 
        completion, and production have led to unprecedented levels of 
        efficiency and emissions reductions; and
Whereas increased production and use of American natural gas have helped the 
        United States reduce its greenhouse gas emissions: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives that 
the United States should support the safe and responsible development 
of its energy resources via drilling, including by--
            (1) repealing administrative precedent that limits the 
        exploration, drilling, and production of domestic natural 
        resources on Federal lands, both onshore and offshore;
            (2) clearly defining the relationship drilling has to 
        future production and delivery of energy resources; and
            (3) incentivizing workforce development in the domestic 
        energy industry of the United States.
                                 &lt;all&gt;
