WASHINGTON DC (1/20/25) – On his first day in office, President Trump began the long process of reversing the Biden administration’s war on American energy by issuing several executive orders and directives related to energy. President Trump’s “Day One” agenda includes withdrawing from the Paris Agreement under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and revoking the U.S. International Climate Finance Plan. He also rescinded several Biden-era executive orders, many of which limited energy development in the United States.
American Energy Alliance President Tom Pyle issued the following statement:
“Unburdened by what has been, President Trump is making good on his promise to immediately begin unwinding the reckless energy policies of the Biden-Harris administration. America is the richest energy nation in the world, and we produce it more efficiently, safely, and cleanly than anybody else. When it comes to access and opportunity to utilize our vast natural resources, the Biden administration has had a policy of restriction. President Trump has promised a policy of abundance. Today, he made a down payment on that promise.
“Unfortunately, there is much more work to be done. The American Energy Alliance cataloged over 250 actions that former President Biden and his team took to make the production of American energy harder and more expensive. We look forward to working with the Trump administration and the new Congress to unleash our energy potential and lower energy prices for all Americans.”
