America, now the world’s top producer and exporter of oil and natural gas, must move beyond risk aversion and actively wield its energy resources, technologies, and know-how to enhance national security and support allies around the world. By embracing pragmatic policies that transcend politics — from boosting domestic liquid natural gas and oil production to advancing nuclear and geothermal innovation — the U.S. can forge powerful partnerships and secure prosperity and stability for the free world.
