AEA Endorses Energy Champion Sen. Rick Scott

WASHINGTON DC (9/24/2024) – The American Energy Alliance (AEA), the country’s premier pro-consumer, pro-taxpayer, and free-market energy organization, is proud to endorse Senator Rick Scott (R-FL) for reelection to the U.S. Senate.

Senator Scott was one of only five Senators to receive AEA’s Energy Champion designation this year, with a full-term score of 96%.

The AEA Scorecard informs voters on how their elected representatives in Washington vote on policies that impact the availability, reliability, and cost of energy. It holds lawmakers accountable for their votes, not their rhetoric, when it comes to policies that affect families and businesses.

Thomas Pyle, President of the American Energy Alliance, issued the following statement:

“Senator Scott’s commitment to promoting American energy and protecting consumers from rising costs makes him the clear choice for Floridians and the nation. 

“His consistent support for expanding domestic energy production has been critical to strengthening our nation’s energy security, protecting American jobs, and ensuring that families and businesses are not burdened by rising fuel costs. 

“His strong opposition to heavy-handed regulations that stifle energy innovation and support for an overhaul of the permitting process system shows that he understands the drivers behind a strong economy. 

“In contrast, Senator Scott’s challenger, Debbie Mucarsel-Powell was a co-sponsor of the Green New Deal, a socialist wishlist of proposals which would undoubtedly send energy prices skyrocketing and cripple our economy. Floridians, and the country, deserve better.

“The American Energy Alliance proudly endorses Senator Rick Scott for United States Senate to ensure all Floridians continue down the path of prosperity.”
