John,

As we head into Thanksgiving, it’s hard not to think about the future we could have if Washington finally fixed our slow, outdated permitting system. Just last week, the House Committee on Natural Resources passed three pieces of legislation that would do just that:

• Streamlines federal permitting so energy projects get approved faster, cutting red tape and accelerating American energy production.
  
  
• Limits reviews to impacts actually caused by a project, cutting the overreach that delays energy development.
  
  
• Safeguard against litigation risk, allowing investors to develop needed infrastructure projects with greater confidence.

Increases efficiency with digital tools, ensuring agencies communicate better, coordinate reviews, and deliver decisions on time.

Let’s keep pushing for a country that can build faster.
