"House Republicans released the outline of a broad energy bill Feb. 9 and vowed to bring the measure to the floor later this year, according to a document released by the Energy and Commerce Committee.
The bill will address the need to 'modernize' electricity transmission and natural gas pipelines and 'allow the export of energy commodities,' according to a framework document released Feb. 9 by Rep. Fred Upton (R-Mich.) and other Republicans on the Energy and Commerce Committee.
'Our energy landscape has changed, but our national energy policy has not kept pace,' the document said. 'Outdated and inadequate energy policies are preventing us from taking full advantage of America’s energy abundance.'"
