I will keep fighting in Washington, D.C., to ensure this reliable, clean, and abundant God-given resource is available to power our homes, support our businesses, and secure America’s energy future for generations to come.
Keep fighting in Washington, D.C., to ensure geothermal energy is available to power homes, support businesses, and secure America's energy future.
Occurrences
Evidence
Fulcher wrote that geothermal has major potential for America and said, 'In Congress, I have introduced and supported multiple pieces of legislation to make the exploration and development of this renewable resource easier by cutting federal government red tape and streamlining the permitting process.'
The member page lists H.R. 5576, 'Enhancing Geothermal Production on Federal Lands Act,' as sponsored by Fulcher, with latest action still 'House - 12/16/2025 Subcommittee Hearings Held' and tracker status 'Introduced.'
Assessments
Fulcher has continued advocating for geothermal energy and sponsored H.R. 5576 to streamline geothermal production on federal lands, which is a concrete federal legislative effort during the same term. However, the cited bill remains introduced/at subcommittee hearing status and the evidence does not show enactment or a completed federal policy outcome making geothermal energy more available. Because there was a serious attempt but the promised outcome has not been delivered, this is best scored as not delivered with effort credit.
