Breaks President’s promise to develop ‘All of the Above’ energy

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today (Friday, February 3, 2012), U.S. Senator John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) expressed his opposition to the Obama Administration’s proposal to vastly reduce the acreage available for oil shale development in Wyoming, Colorado, and Utah.

"Once again, the White House has bowed to the President’s extreme environmental voting base instead of helping unemployed Americans find good jobs in America’s energy sector.

"This proposal flies in the face of the President’s State of the Union promise to pursue ‘an all-out, all-of-the-above strategy that develops every available source of American energy.’ It’s the height of hypocrisy.

"The Interior Department should abandon this irresponsible policy. We must take action now to create jobs and strengthen America’s energy security."
