On energy, we should be exploring for domestic sources of energy.
Let's make sure we're doing what we can in our own backyard to gain our energy independence and to create American jobs with American energy.
We must develop energy independence; we must Make It In America.
We have more natural resources - coal, oil, wind - across the board not only to be energy independent but to be a leading exporter.
We need to break our dependency on foreign sources of oil, which leaves us at the mercy of foreign powers. To do that, we should increase domestic energy production.
At a time when we are dealing with unpredictable suppliers of energy abroad and higher gas costs at home, the decision to increase domestic energy exploration is integral to a balanced, common sense energy policy.
With the increasing demand for oil around the world and the rising costs in Oregon and throughout the nation, we must focus on the development of alternate energy sources, especially those that are clean, efficient and renewable.
We keep spending money and sending it overseas when we should be developing American energy.
We need to bring sustainable energy to every corner of the globe with technologies like solar energy mini-grids, solar powered lights, and wind turbines.
There are those of us that believe if you truly want to try drive down the cost of gas, if you really want to solve the problem, then you should be pursuing the extraction of our resources that are right here at home: alternative energy and traditional.
