President Applauds Congress on Comprehensive Energy Bill
Statement of the President
I applaud the House and Senate for reaching agreement on a
comprehensive energy bill. America will be safer and stronger with a
national energy policy that will help keep the lights on, the furnaces
lit, and the factories running. A good energy bill is part of my
six-point economic plan to create the conditions for job creation and a
sustained recovery. By making America less reliant on foreign sources
of energy, we also will make our Nation more secure. I commend the
Congress for its hard work on this important issue.
