Momentum continues during Energy Rally on Capitol Hill

Last Friday I was privileged to partake in the historic events that unfolded here in Washington. Although the CSPAN cameras were off the entire time, I?ve come across a youtube video of my Republican colleagues as they explain to the tax-payers in the galleries why we think it was wrong to adjourn without voting on a comprehensive energy strategy, and why speaker Pelosi is wrong to try and silence the majority of Americans who are demanding access to American energy reserves.

The quality is not great, but the powerful words of Mr. Shadegg, Mr. Price, and Mr. Pence all make up for it. It does a great job of conveying the excitement and raw emotion that was on display. We are continuing that good work again today, and I am hopeful that Speaker Pelosi will realize that she cannot ignore the will of the people forever. Click here to watch the video.
