A ban on hydraulic fracturing would negatively impact U.S. energy production and likely increase reliance on foreign energy sources. While environmental concerns regarding fracking must be addressed through robust regulation and investment in mitigation technologies, an outright ban is not the optimal solution for balancing energy needs and environmental protection. This bill protects American energy independence and jobs while also ensuring that a key bridge fuel remains accessible as the U.S. transitions to renewable sources.

The Separation of Powers Restoration Act would give agencies greater power to interpret statutes and regulations without meaningful judicial review. Such a shift in authority from the judicial branch raises significant checks and balances concerns and could allow agencies to exceed their statutory authority and undermine the rule of law. No vote is cast in the public's interest by reducing judicial oversight of administrative agencies. For these reasons I vote NO.
