Governors' Coalition for Energy Choice Expands with Two New Members

Baton Rouge, LA - The Governor’s Coalition for Energy Choice, spearheaded by Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry and New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu to address high energy costs and mitigate energy cost inflation across the United States, is pleased to welcome Governor Tate Reeves of Mississippi and Governor Kay Ivey of Alabama to the coalition, further strengthening its reach and impact. The coalition now includes twelve governors from the following states: Louisiana, New Hampshire, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Indiana, Wyoming, Arkansas, South Dakota, Oklahoma, and Virginia. 

The Governors' Coalition for Energy Choice will assist state leaders in developing smart energy policies to benefit working families, businesses, and communities. 

The coalition's goals include:

1. Guaranteeing continued energy choice-that resources of all types remain available to consumers
2. Reducing permitting and other regulatory barriers
3. Restricting expensive energy mandates
4. Focusing on the affordability and reliability of energy infrastructure
5. Promoting positive management of energy resources and the environment

“Affordable energy is too important to the future of our country to accept anything less than full-on American energy independence,” said Gov. Tate Reeves. "I look forward to collaborating with fellow governors to ensure Mississippians, and all Americans can enjoy the freedom to choose their energy now and in the future.”  

“Governors Landry and Sununu are leading an important bipartisan effort to help ensure energy policies put families and consumers over politics, and I am glad to join their coalition,” said Gov. Kay Ivey. 

"We're thrilled to welcome Governor Reeves and Governor Ivey to our coalition," said Gov. Jeff Landry. "Their expertise and commitment to affordable, reliable energy will be invaluable as we work together to shape energy policies that benefit all Americans."
