Congressman Mike Pompeo, R-Kansas, a member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, issued the following statement following the House’s passage of H.R. 1900, the Natural Gas Pipeline Permitting Reform Act:

“Despite all the gridlock in Washington, the House has found a real bipartisan solution to ensure that natural gas energy is more affordable for Americans. This bill ensures that America’s revolution in energy production reaches more households and factories across the country, keeping homes warm, factories humming, and utility bills low, all the while cutting needless red tape.”
