Energy Independence at Risk: Matt Keenan on Federal Overreach and the Fight for American Prosperity

In this impactful episode of American Potential, guest host Aaron Flint welcomes Matt Keenan, Federal Affairs Liaison for Americans for Prosperity, to tackle some of the most pressing issues facing America’s energy sector today.

They delve into the Biden administration’s controversial decisions, including the cancellation of the Keystone XL Pipeline and the push for restrictive energy regulations that are driving up costs for families, killing jobs, and threatening America’s energy independence. Matt breaks down how these policies disproportionately harm rural communities and leave the country vulnerable to foreign energy reliance, all while adding red tape that stifles innovation and economic growth.

The conversation highlights the critical role of the REINS Act—a proposed reform that would bring accountability back to federal agencies by requiring Congressional approval for major regulations. This episode isn’t just about identifying the problems—it’s about empowering Americans with actionable solutions.
