House Passes Latta's Bill to Unleash American Energy Dominance

Today, the House of Representatives passed the Electric Supply Chain Act, legislation introduced by Congressman Bob Latta (OH-5), Chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Energy, to strengthen oversight of supply chains supporting electricity generation and transmission.

The Electric Supply Chain Act directs the Department of Energy to consult with relevant stakeholders to produce periodic assessments of supply chain trends, risks, and vulnerabilities affecting electricity generation and transmission.

"Energy security is national security, and this bill brings us one step closer to unleashing American energy dominance. The Electric Supply Chain Act will strengthen the reliability of our electric grid, expand domestic energy production, and ensure we can power the artificial intelligence data centers of the future. Together, these efforts reinforce American-led energy production and security across the board. I'm grateful to my House colleagues for supporting this bill, and I urge the Senate to act on this critical legislation," Latta said.
