Marathon Pundit: Weekly GOP Address with Lisa Murkowski on energy

President Obama's energy policy is an anti-energy policy. Oh, did you notice that gasoline prices are rising again?

In today's Weekly GOP Address, Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) delivers a pro-energy speech and she discusses her report, Energy 20/20: A Vision for America’s Energy Future.

“Energy is not a necessary evil," Murkowski states. "Energy is good. And that’s why it is in our national interest to make energy abundant, affordable, clean, diverse, and secure. I believe that there’s a consensus around these five objectives, and our challenge now is to align federal policy with them.

"To accomplish that, my blueprint offers some 200 recommendations," she continued. "These span the spectrum of resources and reforms, from the immediate approval of the Keystone XL pipeline to a trust fund for energy research that is paid for with the revenues from new production."
