Issue Position: Energy

Issue Position

We are blessed to live in a country rich in natural resources. We should be energy independent and not be held hostage by other countries for our energy needs.

If we simply unleash our energy companies to do what they do best, we will have an improved economy, more jobs, and lower energy costs.

Tom supports efforts to let Americans drill, dig and produce energy. He opposes any subsidies or tax credits for oil, gas, wind, or solar companies -- to include ethanol subsidies. The government should not be in the business of picking winners and losers, and our previous engagements in these types of activities have led to higher prices, less consumer choices and lower productivity.
