Lowering American Energy Costs Act of 2025

This bill would change the Energy Policy and Conservation Act to require the President to restrict exports of natural gas for the purpose of keeping domestic energy costs low. The President would have to issue a rule banning the export of natural gas produced in the United States. The President could exempt certain exports found to be in the national interest without unreasonably raising costs for home consumers, or found critical to the national security of the U.S. or an ally. Any such exemption would need approval by a joint resolution of Congress before taking effect. The bill also removes parts of a 2016 law dealing with energy exports.
