The Hill cited the Atlantic Council for hosting an event on Capitol Hill on energy and the environment:
Representatives who support a measure to expedite applications to export liquefied natural gas (LNG) to most countries said Tuesday that they are confident the bill can pass the House with strong, bipartisan support.
Four members speaking Tuesday morning at a Capitol Hill event hosted by the Atlantic Council said most Democratic objections to the bill center around issues with the hydraulic fracturing process, or fracking, and its effect on the environment. The majority of natural gas extraction uses fracking, a drilling practice to which environmentalists object.
