Haley to America: Time to End Biden's War on U.S. Energy
Hot Air's Karen Townsend: "I'm with Nikki. Oil drilling rigs are beautiful. She is right about Joe Biden demonizing American energy...The Haley campaign put out a five-point plan for 'American energy dominance' on Thursday. It includes getting the government out of the way and speeding up the permitting process for pipelines. Haley said that standing up to energy dictators in Russia, Iran, and Venezuela is critical. She's right." (Hot Air, 6/9/23)
The Daily Mail's Kelly Laco: "2024 GOP presidential hopeful Nikki Haley has slammed President Biden for 'demonizing' energy producers - and has vowed to return the U.S. to world dominance by making the nation energy independent." (The Daily Mail, 6/8/23)
Midland Reporter-Telegram's Ben Shaffer: "'Biden comes in with a heavy fist,'" Haley said. 'He puts on heavy regulations (on energy companies); he starts to suppress permitting; he worries more about endangered species. I think he cares more about sagebrush lizards than he does about what it's doing to the American family.'" (Midland Reporter-Telegram, 6/8/23)
CBS 7's Tyler Poglitsch: "The former governor criticized the Biden administration for the oil and gas projects that have been canceled. She says she would not criminalize producers but put an end to strict permits and the kinds of regulations that have recently been placed on the industry." (CBS 7, 6/8/23) Midland Reporter-Telegram's Ben Shaffer: "Haley said her administration will not demonize energy producers and instead empower them to create domestic energy security. The Haley administration will not criminalize producers and will put an end to strict permits and regulations imposed on them." (Midland Reporter-Telegram, 6/8/23)
