WASHINGTON, May 1 (UPI) -- Rep. Cory Gardner, R-Colo., said legislation he drafted in the House Energy and Commerce Committee would clear the "logjam" of LNG export licenses.
The House Energy and Commerce Committee passed Gardner's measure by a vote of 33 to 18. The Republican congressman said the so-called Domestic Prosperity and Global Freedom Act would expedite the decision-making processes for facilities seeking an export license for liquefied natural gas.
