May 12, 2025 Letter to House AI and Energy Working Group Recommending Permitting Process Reform
Dear Representative Fedorchak:
The undersigned organizations are pleased to provide our views in response to your AI and Energy Working Group’s recently circulated Request for Information. We represent companies and workers who build and provide equipment, materials, supplies and services to energy infrastructure development, including facilities essential to natural gas production, transportation and consumption. We comprise the vast industrial and labor supply chain that underpins American energy abundance, reliability and affordability.
We applaud and stand ready to support your critical work to develop legislative and policy recommendations to ensure that abundant power is available to support data centers critical to American AI dominance.
Long-term policy durability enshrined in law is critically essential to encourage large, long- term, multi-year investments by developers of energy infrastructure. Our comments below primarily address Pillar One of your Request for Information: American Energy Dominance and AI Energy Demands.
