Third GOP presidential primary debate: on Energy & Oil


Ron DeSantis: Rip up the Green New Deal and throw it in the trash can

Gov. Ron DeSantis: I'm going to unleash all of America's energy potential on day one. I'm taking all the Biden regulations, the Green New Deal, ripping it up and throwing it in the trash \can where it belongs. We're going to lower your gas prices. We're going to create jobs, we're going to lower energy costs, but we're also going to be more energy independent and secure. Biden's Green New Deal, that's good for Venezuela, it's good for Russia, it's good for Iran and it's good for China.

Tim Scott: Not just energy independent; we should be energy dominant

Sen. Tim Scott: The first thing I would do as President of the United States as I would sign the XL Keystone Pipeline and start seeing resources flow. Second thing I would do is make sure that there's certainty and predictability so that those folks who have the leases in our country would have the certainty and predictability to go ahead and become energy independent. We should focus not just on being energy independent, we should focus on being energy dominant.

Vivek Ramaswamy: Increase supply of everything

Vivek Ramaswamy: As a CEO, the economic question is core to my vision and policy prescription for this country. Increase the supply of everything. It's the law of supplies and demand. Increase the supply of energy, that brings down the cost of energy, grows the economy. Drill, frack, burn coal, embrace nuclear. Increase the supply of labor in this country. Stop using our taxpayer money to pay people more to stay at home instead of to go to work.
