Albuquerque – In the latest effort to import failed California policies, today Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham signed into law new fuel standards that will increase the price of gasoline. By signing the so-called "Clean Transportation Fuel Standards" bill into law, Governor Lujan Grisham is forcing New Mexico to join only three other states in enacting this expensive standard.
"It's clear that Governor Lujan Grisham took a look at California's highest gas prices in the nation and decided that's what she wants for New Mexico's families," said Larry Behrens, Communications Director for Power The Future. "As a national leader in oil production, New Mexico's leaders should do all they can to support our energy industry. Instead, Santa Fe politicians want to copy failed policies that punish families by driving up prices."
According to AAA as of today, the three states that have similar fuel standards pay on average $4.28 for a gallon of gasoline which is nearly a dollar more than the national average. In California, families are forced to pay $4.84 per gallon, which is a whopping $1.74 more than the current average in New Mexico.
Power The Future is a 501c4 non-profit dedicated to fighting for American energy workers.
Washington, D.C. - Standing up to President Biden's army of bureaucrats and fighting for energy price relief for America's families are key elements of the newly released House Consolidated Appropriations Act. In response to the measure, Power The Future Founder and Executive Director Daniel Turner released the following statement:
"Enough is enough, Joe Biden is pushing through his extreme climate agenda by using every corner of the administration while using our tax dollars to do it. By cutting back funding on Biden's army of bureaucrats, this appropriation bill will send the message that driving up prices on our families is no longer acceptable. We commend Chair Granger for reclaiming congressional authority from a rogue administrative state that uses unappropriated funds to advance an agenda that neither Congress nor the American people support."
Washington, D.C. - Power The Future is urging the House Energy and Commerce Committee to investigate Climate Czar John Podesta's role in the recent decision to halt American liquified natural gas (LNG) exports. According to a recent report from the Washington Free Beacon, Podesta played a major role in President Biden's LNG decision, while his brother works as a lobbyist for foreign producers. According to the report, Tony Podesta works for at least one foreign LNG company that was funded by a Russian oligarch.
Washington, D.C. - Following an initial debut before attendees at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), Power The Future today launched a dynamic video series reminding families about the devastating consequences of Joe Biden's "America Last" energy policy. Titled "Energy Is On The Ballot," the videos are a walk back in time over the last three years that drove inflation and gas prices to new highs. Today, families are paying more for everyday goods, and as November approaches, these videos will serve as a reminder of the consequences of abandoning American energy.
Washington, D.C. - Despite President Joe Biden's constant blaming of Vladimir Putin for high energy prices in the United States, the Russian leader says Biden is his preference to win re-election. Putin praised Biden as "more predictable" and "a politician of the old formation." Â The endorsement arrives less than a month after President Biden put a halt to approvals for liquified natural gas (LNG) exports. As reported today, Biden's move was pushed by new Climate Czar John Podesta while a member of his family works as lobbyist for foreign LNG producers, including one founded by a Russian energy oligarch that stands to personally profit from Biden's policy.
