When was the last time you had a drink of water? Maybe there’s a glass sitting on your desk, or a water bottle tucked away somewhere. Most of us don’t think about access to water – clean water. It’s a simple necessity that everyone should have access to, a basic fact of life that seems so…
Two years ago at the Yeager Airport in West Virginia we were reminded of the poor state of America’s airports. A safety area at the end of a runway, meant to mitigate emergencies, broke free and fell down a hill. The accident crushed a church and forced 100 people from their homes. President Trump has…
At this moment, between $15 billion and $25 billion sit in limbo, ready to bring value to local economies. Seventy-five thousand jobs are waiting to be created, simply pending approval. This is because 15 different infrastructure projects are unable to receive approval from the Federal Energy Regulation Commission (FERC). The Commission has been without a quorum for months,…
The boom in natural gas production has been sweeping the nation for nearly a decade now, with millions of jobs created and countless dollars saved in energy costs. Economies have benefited and our national security has been strengthened through our utilization of the natural resources beneath our feet, but there has been a major player largely…
Despite consistent growth in the U.S. economy, certain groups and communities have seemingly been left behind. This certainly wasn’t done intentionally, but it’s apparent nonetheless.

While a dozen European countries are currently beholden to Russian supplies of natural gas, help may soon be on the way in the form of American-produced gas.

We have written recently about the poor state of American infrastructure in our rural communities. Roads, bridges, and power lines across the country were built in the 1950s and 60s with a 50-year lifespan. And in most cases, they haven’t been updated since. This mounting neglect could affect thousands of Americans, but it should soon be…
If you have walked through Grand Central Station in New York City, 30th Street Station in Philadelphia, or even Union Station in Washington then you’ve likely been struck by the magnificence of their construction. These train stations were built like cathedrals, monuments to the successes of modern transportation. They are important, and we should take…
With the advent of natural gas and oil exports, a new era for American energy is dawning. President Trump believes we are on the brink of becoming net exporters in natural gas and oil, changing America’s position in the international energy arena. Because of this, the U.S. has the opportunity to provide allies around the world with…
