Leading the Way in Energy Production
It may be fashionable in Washington to portray energy companies as the bad guys, but in Oklahoma we have long benefited from an abundance of resources like oil and natural gas. The production of these fossil fuels brings jobs and money to Oklahoma, and we in turn help supply the rest of the nation with American made energy. I’m proud of our energy companies and employees, and as governor, I’ll make sure they are treated fairly by the federal government. Here in Oklahoma, I’ll provide the kind of pro-energy leadership that will increase production and spur job growth.
I’ll also work to diversify our energy economy and encourage the production of clean, alternative fuels like wind power, solar power and biodiesel fuels. Oklahoma has a wealth of fossil fuels, but that doesn’t mean we can’t also lead the way when it comes to other energy sources. As governor, I’ll make sure we invest in our energy future today, so that our sons and daughters inherit a state that remains on the forefront of American energy production.
