introduced the LNG Export Security Act, which would amend current law to provide certainty to American energy producers and ensure future administrations cannot use vague language to stifle LNG production and exports
Support legislation to protect LNG production and exports by preventing future administrations from using vague language to stifle them.
Occurrences
Mr. Cornyn (for himself and Mr. Fetterman) introduced the following bill; which was read twice and referred to the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources. Short Title: LNG Export Security Act. Full Title: To amend the Natural Gas Act to include a definition of the term public interest, and for other purposes.
Evidence
The article says Cornyn and Fetterman introduced the LNG Export Security Act to stop future administrations from blocking new LNG export terminals and to limit permitting considerations to domestic economic and national security interests.
Assessments
The promise was to support legislation protecting LNG production and exports from future administrative restrictions, not necessarily to enact such a bill into law. The available evidence shows Cornyn co-introduced the LNG Export Security Act in May 2026, a concrete legislative action directly aligned with that commitment. Because he materially supported the promised type of legislation while in office, this counts as delivered in the same term.
