Dave Domina on Energy & Oil

 

 


Impact of fossil fuels on our environment is real

On energy, Domina advocated for abolishing federal subsidies for fossil fuels and redirecting them to renewable energy. He supported the EPA's proposed new regulations to crack down on coal-fired power plants. "Science is real, and the impact that fossil fuels are having on our environment are real," he said. "They will come raining down on all our heads, and especially yours, if we don't fix it immediately."

Sasse decried the Obama adminstration's "war on industries like coal": "The Obama administration doesn't have an all of the above strategy--they have a Solyndra Strategy."

Domina represents Nebraska landowners fighting the proposed Keystone XL oil pipeline that would cross the state; Sasse supports the pipeline and the development of more North American oil and natural gas. Sasse also supports renewable energy, ethanol, clean nuclear power and wind energy "but not an administration that tries to pick winners and losers."

Don't let Big Oil run pipelines through Nebraska

Dave Domina stepped up to protect Nebraska landowners threatened to be overrun by a foreign oil company that wants to run a pipeline through the State. His work helped with a Special Session of the Legislature and led to highly visible litigation over the validity of a newly enacted state law strongly supported by "big oil". On February 19, 2014, Domina won this lawsuit and got yet another state law declared unconstitutional.
