The Biden administration’s focus on moving toward alternative energy sources such as wind and solar—despite an abundance of fossil fuels—will damage America’s energy independence and economy, according to a panel of former and current lawmakers at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC).
Former Rep. Bob Beauprez (R-Colo.) said on Feb. 27 that there are increasingly more ways to harvest fossil fuels in a safer, cleaner, and wiser way, as he referred to the administration’s energy policy “absolutely insanity at a time when we are blessed with an abundance with energy.”
