Military shouldn’t be over a barrel on fuel
Read the op-ed I wrote in Stars and Stripes on the importance of securing our energy future and improving our national security by investing in the military's use and development of alternative-fuel technology.
The United States has always maintained its strategic superiority in the world by refusing to be satisfied with old technology. Our energy policy - for consumers at home and our military - should take the same approach. It is time that Congress and my colleagues in the House recognize that choosing between energy security and national security is a false choice - they go hand in hand. We need to invest in 21st-century fuel sources so our military and our country remain ahead of the curve in the 21st century and beyond.
