"Texas Official Warns of Job Losses as GOP Pushes Back Against Biden's Natural Gas Policies"

Texas official Dawn Buckingham criticizes the Biden administration's pause on LNG export approvals, warning of millions of job losses and accusing the administration of targeting Texas. The pause is seen as a win for Russia by industry groups and Republicans, while environmentalists view it as a step towards addressing climate change. Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm stated that the pause will not immediately impact U.S. gas supplies to Europe or Asia, and the Energy Department may allow exceptions for national security needs.
