    6133 Highway 311 Houma, Louisiana 70360 Phone: 985.876.5600 Fax: 985.876.5611 [email protected] www.houmachamber.com April 24, 2020 The Honorable Donald J. Trump President The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., NW Washington, DC 20500 Dear Mr. President: I want to thank you for your tremendous support for our American energy industry and your leadership during the current public health and economic crises. The Gulf of Mexico plays an integral role in producing the energy to fuel America and in Louisiana, our communities are the epicenter for servicing this offshore oil and gas industry. Now, during these unprecedented times we need your bold leadership to save over 500,000 jobs that are directly tied to the offshore oil and gas industry. Our Association… Houma-Terrebonne Chamber of Commerce 6133 Hwy 311 Houma, LA 70360 Louisiana supports 17% of our nation’s energy production and we serve as the epicenter for servicing the offshore oil and gas industry in the Gulf of Mexico. Louisiana is home to many small and medium-sized companies who provide the goods and services to the offshore oil and gas companies and depend on a healthy and thriving offshore industry. In Louisiana 50,000 jobs are at risk. The demise of the offshore oil and gas industry is having a direct and severe impact on our service companies. Since the decline in oil and gas prices, our local businesses have had to make drastic cost reductions. And now today, due to the current crises many of Louisiana’s local service companies are taking draconian measures, such as laying off or furloughing employees, just to stay in business.

  • Dan Brouillette Deputy Secretary of Energy
    Proclamation Presidential Proclamation on Martin Luther King, Jr., Federal Holiday, 2019 Issued on: January 18, 2019 One hundred years after President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, the great Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., took to the steps of the Lincoln Memorial and shared his vision of an America lifted from the “quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood.” His extraordinary message that momentous day in August of 1963 stirred to action Americans of every race and creed, and it continues to reverberate in the hearts and minds of patriotic citizens across our great land. Today, as we pause to mark the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., we recommit ourselves to the advancement of equality and justice for all Americans, and to the full realization of his worthy dream. In the United States of America, every citizen should have the opportunity to build a better and brighter future, and, as President, I am committed to expanding opportunity for all Americans. We have added more than 5 million new jobs to the economy over the past 2 years and unemployment rates for African Americans, Hispanic Americans, Asian Americans, and Americans without a high school degree have reached record lows. Importantly, we have also worked tirelessly to reform our Nation’s criminal justice system, so that those who have been incarcerated and paid their debt to society are given a second chance at life. Last year, I was proud to sign into law the First Step Act, which will prepare inmates to successfully rejoin society and effect commonsense reforms to make our justice system fairer for all Americans.

  • Economic and National Security Impacts Under a Hydraulic Fracturing Ban
    Economic and National Security Impacts under a Hydraulic Fracturing Ban Report to the President January 2021 United States Department of Energy Washington, DC 20585 Message from the Secretary As directed by the President in an October 31, 2020 Presidential Memoranda titled: “Memorandum on Protecting Jobs, Economic Opportunities, and National Security for All Americans,” the Department of Energy is submitting the following report on the economic and national security outcomes of a domestic ban on hydraulic fracturing technologies. This report addresses Section 4 (Domestic and Economic Impacts of Undermining Hydraulic Fracturing and Other Technologies) and Section 5 (National Security Impacts of Undermining Hydraulic Fracturing and Other Technologies) of the Presidential Memoranda. I am proud to present this report to the Assistant to the President for Economic Policy and the Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs, as it is technologies like hydraulic fracturing that unleashed America’s natural resources and made the United States the world’s largest natural gas and oil producer, while also creating high-paying jobs and delivering meaningful consumer savings. As this report concludes, a ban on hydraulic fracturing — a practice that has been used for over 50 years in the United States and other countries — would result in the loss of millions of jobs, price spikes at the gasoline pump and higher electricity costs for all Americans. Such a ban would eliminate the United States’ status as the top oil and gas producing country and return us to being a net importer of oil and gas by 2025. It would weaken America’s geopolitical standing and negatively impact our national security.

  • Originalism and Stare Decisis
    ORIGINALISM AND STARE DECISIS STEPHEN MARKMAN* The extent to which originalism can be harmonized with precedent is an issue I have confronted regularly during my ten‐ ure as a justice on the Michigan Supreme Court. This article out‐ lines several observations that have informed my thinking on this topic, drawn from my decade or so on that court.1 I view myself as an originalist judge, sometimes lapsing into self‐descriptions as a “textualist,” an “interpretivist,” a believer in “original meaning,” or even a “judicial conservative.” Nu‐ ances of differences in these terms aside, I take seriously what I view as my obligation to give reasonable meaning to the lan‐ guage of the drafters of constitutions, statutes, contracts, and deeds. I have taken oaths to the United States Constitution and to the Michigan Constitution, and I take these oaths seriously. On the other hand, I have not taken an oath to abide by the judgments of my predecessors. Yet, on a number of occasions, I have sustained precedents I have disagreed with, and which did not, in my judgment, conform to the intentions of the lawmaker. Despite this, the primary criticism of my court during the eight years when I served with three other originalists as a majority of our seven‐member court, was that we were insufficiently re‐ spectful of precedent.2 Throughout my time on the court, I have * Justice, Michigan Supreme Court.

  • Microsoft Outlook
    Updates from the Capitol November 30 - December 11 State Leaders Ready a COVID Relief Package As we move closer to adjournment of the 100th Legislature, Governor Gretchen Whitmer and State Budget Office Director Chris Kolb have issued a supplemental request to both the Michigan Senate and House of Representatives Appropriations Committees primarily to support the state’s 1 ongoing pandemic response efforts. Supplemental Request 2021-2 recommends additional funding for the current fiscal year to the departments of Agriculture and Rural Development; Corrections; Education; Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy; Health and Human Services; Military and Veterans Affairs; and Technology, Management, and Budget. These adjustments are to be used to provide for coronavirus response activities that will no longer be funded with federal Coronavirus Relief Funds after December 30 due to federal law. The request included an approximately $617.3 million appropriation ($192.4 million General Fund) for Health and Human Services. This funding would go to support the following: • $419 million for pandemic food assistance benefits, specifically for children who, instead of receiving free or reduced-price meals at school, will be provided these meals throughout the pandemic • Approximately $5.9 million for immunization programs through local public health departments • Approximately $192 million for DHHS to continue its coronavirus response efforts, including testing and contact tracing of vulnerable populations, purchasing of supplies and equipment, supporting the expansion of health system capacity for distribution of COVID-19 vaccines, as well as wage and other supports for health care providers, among other things. To offset the spending request, the Director discussed this week the use of lapsed funding, savings from a lower-than-projected Medicaid caseload and higher-than-anticipated revenues, as well as future federal stimulus.
