In this episode of Right Voices, we spoke with Congressman Peter Meijer, who represents Michigan’s 3rd congressional district.
Congressman Meijer is emphatic on the need to bring nuanced and sustainable solutions to the table for all issues, including energy and climate change. Thus far, the Congressman says that he has been “deeply and incredibly frustrat[ed]” by the Biden Administration’s energy policies.
He said this: “If our goal is reducing greenhouse gas emissions, then why the heck are we going to the countries with some of the largest methane emissions per barrel of oil instead of investing in American producers? We are outsourcing the profits, we’re outsourcing the jobs, and we are having a [worse] global impact when it comes to climate and global warming.”
Meijer supports pragmatic climate and energy solutions like energy efficiency, nuclear power, and American natural gas. He is also a member of the Conservative Climate Caucus.
