Evidence
Fetterman’s office says he and Sen. Cornyn introduced the LNG Export Security Act and that it would clarify the Natural Gas Act’s public-interest standard for LNG exports.
The Congressional Record shows S. 4520 was introduced by Sen. Cornyn for himself and Sen. Fetterman and was referred to the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources.
Assessments
Fetterman co-introduced the LNG Export Security Act and his office described it as clarifying the LNG export standard, which counts as a real legislative effort. But the evidence shows only introduction and referral; there is no passage or enactment, so the promised outcome was not delivered.
