Walberg Votes for Bills to Reduce Energy Costs & Promote Job Creation

Washington, D.C. – Today, Rep. Walberg voted in favor of H.R. 2, the American Energy Solutions for Lower Costs and More American Jobs Act, and H.R. 4, the Jobs for America Act. H.R. 2 is a comprehensive package of energy bills already passed by the House and awaiting a Senate vote that would expand energy production and lower energy costs. H.R. 4 is a single jobs package of bills that includes legislation to reduce federal regulations, lower taxes and equip job-creators with the tools they need to succeed.

"American families and American businesses are struggling under excessive federal regulations, high energy costs and burdensome taxes. We can't afford to wait any longer to address these issues. I'm proud to support these pieces of legislation that reaffirm our commitment to an ‘all-of-the-above' energy strategy and creating jobs for a healthy economy," said Rep. Walberg following the vote.
