AEA Endorses Perdue & Loeffler for U.S. Senate
Georgians can slam the door on the left’s attempt to fundamentally transform our Republic.
WASHINGTON DC (December 1, 2020) – The American Energy Alliance (AEA), the country’s premier pro-consumer, pro-taxpayer, and free-market energy organization, has endorsed Senators David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler for U.S. Senate in Georgia’s runoff election on January 5, 2021.
Drawing from its American Energy Scorecard, AEA highlighted Sen. Perdue’s 92% energy voting record and Energy Champion designation. AEA scores both votes and legislative sponsorships related to energy and the environment, such as the Green New Deal.
As an appointee in 2020 by Governor Brian Kemp, Sen. Loeffler does not qualify to receive an official AEA score, but nonetheless has proven to be a reliable vote for affordable and reliable energy and for free markets.
With forty-eight seats controlled by Democrats, and fifty seats controlled by Republicans, the outcome of Perdue and Loeffler’s elections will be the key deciding factor in the balance of power and political control of the U.S. Senate. Returning Senators Perdue and Loeffler to the Senate will prevent the Democrat party and the green left from having the unchecked ability to restrict our energy use and increase the role of the federal government in our daily lives.
Thomas Pyle, president of the American Energy Alliance, issued the following statement:
“The blue wave that nearly every Democrat and pollster said was coming hit a red brick wall on election day. Americans resoundingly rejected the Democrats radical agenda, which included the Green New Deal and a ban on fracking.
“On January 5, Georgians will make a very important decision that will likely impact the direction of our great Republic. They can support Senators David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler, who will continue to promote policies that have helped make America energy independent for the first time in 62 years. Or they can support their opponents, which would effectively hand the keys of Congress to Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer, who will not doubt advance an agenda that will restrict our energy choices and cede our newfound energy freedom to countries like China. Policies like the Green New Deal reflect New York and California values, not Georgia values. The choice is clear.
“The American Energy Alliance proudly endorses Senators Purdue and Loeffler. Georgians should send them back to the Senate to represent Georgia’s interests in Washington and stop the Democrats from enacting radical policies that will harm our economy and make us less secure. It’s that simple.”
