Unleashing American Energy

Key claim: Executive Order 14154, signed January 20, 2025, establishes a national policy to expand domestic energy production from oil, gas, coal, nuclear, hydropower, biofuels and critical minerals by requiring agencies to review and rescind regulations that impose undue burdens. It revokes twelve prior executive orders on climate, environmental justice and clean-energy initiatives, terminates the American Climate Corps, and directs the Council on Environmental Quality to rescind its NEPA regulations in order to expedite federal permitting.
