Europe’s continuing energy crisis reflects a conscientious disregard for sound policies dating back over a decade. Is the Biden administration preparing to make the same mistakes in the United States? What can and should the administration and the 118th Congress do now to chart a course away from energy instability to ensure economic prosperity while bolstering national defense?

Please join Hudson Institute Senior Fellow Brigham McCown and Congressman August Pfluger (R-TX) as they discuss this important issue. Hudson Media Fellow Jeremy Hunt will moderate the event.
