Ohio Rep. Bill Johnson is mincing no words in expressing his frustration with President Obama and his energy agenda. Johnson says Obama is pursuing energy policies that frustrate businesses rather than partner with them to grow the economy. Johnson rips Obama for ignoring our own vast natural resources while pumping billions into failed ‘green energy’ firms like Solyndra. Johnson is particularly incensed at what he considers a crippling regulatory burden coming from the federal government – regulations that that have already closed multiple coal-fired power plants. Rep. Johnson also highlights what House Republicans are doing to increase domestic energy and bring soaring fuel costs back under control.
