Great to see this new report from Bipartisan Policy Center John Jacobs on establishing a critical mineral reserve. A lot to love, and lots of similarities with the Strategic Resilience Reserve proposal Daleep and I wrote about earlier this year. A quick thread on some highlights:

Permitting nerds, this is your time to shine. Bipartisan permitting reform this Congress. Cheaper energy, reduced emissions, better quality of life. Let’s do this. energy.senate.gov/2024/7/manchin…

Check out this 🧵 from Xan Fishman on the bipartisan permitting bill being proposed by Sen Manchin and Barrasso. Still sorting out the details, but there is a lot to like…

.Sasha Mackler spoke with Tim McDonnell of Semafor on what Vice President Kamala Harris' approach to climate might be.

Building out America’s transmission capacity will help us meet our climate goals, bolster U.S. competitiveness and support our transition to a clean energy economy. This proposal includes critical bipartisan transmission reforms, and I hope that we can come together around them.

I like this point from Xan Fishman. Don’t be more anti-fossil fuel than pro-emissions reductions!

.Senator Joe Manchin and Sen. John Barrasso's Energy Permitting Reform Act reflects strong cross-party collaboration and is a significant step in improving the permitting process to: ✅ Increase energy reliability ✅ Advance clean energy infrastructure development ✅ Create jobs

Huge bipartisan vote in favor of permitting reform!! 15-4. Passes out of ENR committee. This is a big deal. Congrats to all the Members, staff, and stakeholders that helped make this happen.

Today at Bipartisan Policy Center we are hosting a “must see” event on the prospects of energy permitting reform this year. Join in-person or online! 4 MOCs from the House plus Xan Fishman exploring the political opportunity.

Great conversation yesterday on permitting reform with Buddy Carter Rep. Scott Peters Chrissy Houlahan & Garret Graves. I believe we can get a bipartisan permitting reform bill passed into law this year. Video in thread below if you missed the event. @imaginephotographydc

Yesterday, Buddy Carter, Garret Graves, Chrissy Houlahan, and Rep. Scott Peters joined us to discuss how they are working to pass what has quickly become a #bipartisan priority: energy #permitting reform. Hear more of what they have to say⬇️

Permitting reform is fun.

Major new bipartisan bill to boost investment in the U.S. critical mineral processing: The Critical Materials Future Act aligns with BPC’s recommendation to counter China’s overproduction, which floods markets and drives prices to unsustainable lows.
