A possible Senate breakthrough to end the wrongheaded crude oil export ban?

What kind of world do we live in, where America's leaders try to give Iran better international trading terms than we provide our own petroleum producers?

The United States recently overtook Russia and Saudi Arabia to become the world's leading oil and natural gas producer.

The Obama administration approved limited crude oil trading with Mexico on Friday, further easing the longstanding U.S. ban on crude exports that has drawn consternation from Republicans and energy producers.

Admiral Don Loren was the keynote speaker, Captain James McCormick met with attendees at the Vets4Energy booth, and Vets4Energy hosted a luncheon with local veterans.

While the U.S. advances a nuclear deal that would let Iran reemerge as a major oil supplier on the global market - to Iran's economic and competitive gain - the United States denies itself similar benefits by banning its own crude exports. This is hurting America....

As Republican presidential candidates prepare for their first debate on Thursday, the leader of the nation's top oil industry trade group said it's time for them to provide more details about their plans for U.S. energy policy.

Vets4Energy was there to talk about how energy policies affect our national and economic security. Rear Admiral Loren spoke at National Security Committee meeting and Captains McCormick and Caldarelli talked one on one with attendees at booth.

Captain James McCormick, USA (ret.) is keynote presenter for "Shale Insight 2015:" Sept 16-17 at Pennsylvania Convention Center.

Pennsylvania House Speaker, Mike Turzai, asked Vets4Energy to talk about national security and economic implications of America's domestic energy revolution. See Capt's McCormick and Caldarelli here.
