2024 presidential campaign press release: on Energy & Oil

Doug Burgum: EPA rules infringed on state & Congressional authority

"The Court's ruling is a tremendously significant decision for State's rights and consumers. This ruling puts a halt to federal overreach, including far reaching EPA proposed rules that infringed not just on State's but congressional authority," Burgum said. "Leading with innovation, not regulation, and all-of-the-above energy strategies that are responsive to market trends, promote new technologies to boost production and curb emissions is an environmentally sound and common-sense approach."

In 2020, the US Court of Appeals struck down the EPA's Affordable Clean Energy Rule, which recognized the shift in delegating to the States the primary authority to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from existing power plans. The decision today in North Dakota vs. EPA reversed that ruling.

Kamala Harris: $20B for community-based clean energy transition

For years, one of the missing pieces in our strategy to fight the climate crisis is that we have not invested in community climate action. For years, the people of the community--folks who know what their neighborhood needs and how to provide it--have not been given adequate resources to implement climate solutions. And that's why we're here today.

I am proud to announce the largest investment in financing for community-based climate projects in our nation's history. We will provide $20 billion to a national network of nonprofits and community lenders to fund tens of thousands of climate and clean energy projects.
