two key pieces of legislation led by Congressman Troy Balderson ... to strengthen America’s electric grid reliability
Strengthening our grid and winning the race for AI dominance requires the right power at the right time.
As we continue to unleash American energy, it's critical we have the infrastructure necessary to deliver electricity from power generators to those who need it.
This hearing will provide the opportunity to examine ways we can meet growing demand, address the federal hurdles that too often slow down needed development, and deliver reliable and affordable energy.
restore our nation's energy dominance
Congressman Troy Balderson (OH-12) today introduced a bill to unleash American energy dominance, ensure U.S. energy independence, and support an all-of-the-above approach that guarantees affordable, reliable energy based on evidence and science rather than far-left "green new deal" political ideologies.
Evidence
Balderson said the bill would make "those reversals legally binding" and described it as a way to "reign in regulatory practices that have imperiled baseload power". The release also says the legislation would require federal agencies to review actions relating to affordable, reliable, or clean energy and that it was introduced in response to Biden-era energy policy and increased outage risk.
Congress.gov lists Rep. Balderson as the sponsor of H.R. 3616, introduced 05/29/2025. The page shows the latest action as Senate referral on 12/18/2025, and the tracker shows the bill had not become law.
The Clerk of the House records that on 12/17/2025 the House passed H.R. 3616, the Reliable Power Act, by a vote of 225-203, with Balderson voting yea on passage.
The Clerk of the House records that on 09/18/2025 the House passed H.R. 1047, the GRID Power Act, by a vote of 216-206, with Balderson voting yea. The bill title and passage show an affirmative step toward strengthening grid reliability.
Balderson announced a congressional review act resolution to challenge Biden administration EPA regulations "intended to shut down American power plants" and said it was a formal challenge to the administration's plan.
Congress.gov lists Balderson as sponsor of H.J.Res.163 and shows the latest action as 09/18/2024: ordered to be reported by the Yeas and Nays, 23-18. The tracker status remains introduced rather than enacted.
The article says Balderson met with Ohio energy producers to discuss measures to remove obstacles delaying energy development, centering on permitting reforms to speed developments and investments.
Congress.gov shows H.R.3616 was introduced by Rep. Balderson on 2025-05-29 and the latest action was referral; the bill status remains introduced rather than enacted.
The member page lists Balderson's energy-related bills including H.R.7523 introduced on 2026-02-12 and other prior energy bills, with no indication of enactment for the listed measures.
Congress.gov shows Balderson's Reliable Power Act passed the House on 2025-12-17 and was received in the Senate on 2025-12-18, where it was referred to the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources; the bill tracker still shows it as Passed House, not law.
Balderson's member page lists H.R.7523, introduced on 2026-02-12 and referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce; no later action or enactment is shown, so it is another concrete but unfinished energy-policy effort.
Assessments
Balderson made repeated, concrete efforts to reverse or block Biden-era energy rules, including sponsoring H.J.Res.163 and H.R.3616 and voting for House-passed reliability bills, but the evidence shows no enactment or completed reversal of the policies. This fits a serious legislative attempt that fell short of delivering the promised outcome.
Balderson made serious same-term efforts to reverse Biden-era energy policies tied to power reliability, including sponsoring H.R. 3616, backing H.R. 1047, and introducing a Congressional Review Act resolution against EPA power-plant rules. However, the key measures had not become law or otherwise produced a completed federal policy reversal in the evidence provided. House passage and bill sponsorship show material effort, but not fulfillment of the promised outcome.
Balderson made serious same-term legislative efforts to reverse Biden-era energy and EPA policies tied to grid reliability, including sponsoring H.R. 3616 and H.J.Res.163 and voting for related House-passed reliability bills. However, the evidence shows these measures were not enacted into law, so the promised outcome of actually unraveling the policies was not delivered.
