Pfluger’s FENCES Act passed the House by a 220-208 vote. The office says the bill protects states, energy producers, and manufacturers by clarifying Clean Air Act permitting treatment for foreign emissions and natural events, and reducing delays and compliance burdens.

Concrete legislative success that advances permitting reform and domestic energy production, but it is not a completed energy-independence outcome.
