API issues statement in favor of EPA’s latest regulatory reforms
American Petroleum Institute President and CEO Mike Sommers issued the following statement after the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced plans to reconsider several major rulemakings as part of a broader agenda to support American energy dominance.
“Voters sent a clear message in support of affordable, reliable and secure American energy, and the Trump administration is answering the call by moving forward on many of the priorities in API's five-point policy roadmap. As this regulatory process moves forward, we are committed to working with Secretary Zeldin on commonsense policies that advance American energy dominance.”
API’s five-point policy roadmap and EPA policy memo noted the importance of many of these regulatory actions to secure American energy leadership and protect consumer choice.
