What it does
The bill would amend the Energy Policy and Conservation Act to prohibit the export of natural gas produced in the United States, with the goal of lowering domestic energy costs. It would require the President to promulgate a rule banning such exports, though exemptions could be granted for national interest or national security reasons, subject to congressional approval via joint resolution. The bill affects natural gas producers, exporters, and domestic consumers, aiming to reduce household and industrial energy expenses by keeping more natural gas supply within the U.S. market.
