AEA Applauds Selection of Gov. Perry to Run Energy Department

WASHINGTON — The American Energy Alliance applauds President-elect Trump’s selection of former Texas Governor Rick Perry to be the next Secretary of Energy. AEA Vice President of Communications Chris Warren issued the following statement:

“Governor Perry will bring a tremendous amount of experience and knowledge to the Department of Energy. Having spent 15 successful years as the governor of Texas, he has a proven track record as an executive who can get the job done. During his time as governor, Texas was not only a leader in energy production, but also emerged as a hub for the manufacturing and tech industries.

“The Department of Energy is a $30 billion per year agency that employs more than 100,000 people and oversees a broad set of issues. Governor Perry’s executive experience makes him an excellent choice to lead such an expansive operation. We are confident that he will run the agency in a way that best serves the needs of the American people.”
