Evidence

The DOE office page lists the Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management at the Forrestal Building, 1000 Independence Avenue SW, Washington, DC 20585, and names current leadership and program offices; it does not show a Pittsburgh relocation.

Official DOE contact information still places the office in Washington, not Pittsburgh.

DOE’s current leadership-and-offices page places the Office of Fossil Energy under the Office of the Under Secretary for Science and shows the department’s live organizational structure in June 2026, with no indication that the office has been moved to Pittsburgh.

DOE’s current organization still treats Fossil Energy as a Washington-based DOE program office, not a relocated Pittsburgh office.

Assessments

never unknown A for effort

As of June 12, 2026, the Department of Energy still lists the Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management at the Forrestal Building in Washington, D.C., not Pittsburgh. Reschenthaler did make a serious legislative effort: he sponsored H.R. 4415, the Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management Relocation Act of 2025, introduced on July 15, 2025, and publicly promoted the relocation. But the bill's latest status is only introduction and referral to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, with no House passage, Senate passage, enactment, or actual relocation. Under federal office-context timing and credit rules, that is a meaningful attempt but not delivery of the promised outcome.
