McCormick Slams Harris & Casey’s Fracking Ban While at PA Oil & Gas Rig
WARREN, PA. — Dave McCormick, a combat veteran and Pennsylvania job creator who served in the highest levels of government, toured an oil and natural gas pad in Warren County today, meeting with energy workers and seeing firsthand the important role fracking plays in the commonwealth’s economy.
“Kamala Harris and Bob Casey want to ban fracking in Pennsylvania,” said McCormick. “[Fracking] is the key to Pennsylvania’s future, it’s great for our national security, it’s incredibly important for Pennsylvania’s economy, and it’s great for the environment.”
Bob Casey failed to stand up for PA energy yesterday, aligning himself once again with Kamala Harris despite her call to ban fracking.
Harris also wants to abolish the filibuster to pass the socialist, job-killing Green New Deal, and “transition” PA energy workers out of their jobs.
Bob Casey has opposed Pennsylvania energy every step of the way. In addition to supporting a ban on fracking, Casey:
- Cheers the war on fossil fuels and associates himself with radical environmental groups.
- Embraced Kamala-Biden green energy mandates, which are making America more dependent on China.
- Voted against the Keystone XL pipeline and supported a natural gas tax.
- Pushed a cap-and-trade policy that would cost PA billions of dollars and 500,000 jobs.
- Backed the Clean Power Plan, which would have raised electricity rates in Pennsylvania by almost 50 percent.
- Has taken no concrete actions to stop the Kamala-Biden LNG export ban.
