API:新民意调查显示摇摆州选民支持提高美国石油和天然气产量的政策

2024 年 8 月 15 日

(WO) 美国石油协会 (API) 发布了由 Morning Consult 进行的最新战场州民意调查结果,结果显示,人们广泛支持鼓励国内石油和天然气生产、限制对外国能源依赖的政策。

民意调查显示,通货膨胀仍然是亚利桑那州、乔治亚州、密歇根州、内华达州、北卡罗来纳州、宾夕法尼亚州和威斯康星州选民最关心的问题,绝大多数人反对车辆强制令。随着国会继续就两党许可改革立法进行辩论,战场州的选民强烈支持简化能源基础设施项目审批程序的改革。 

距离选举日还有不到 100 天的时间,美国石油学会敦促两党政策制定者支持常识性的能源政策,包括美国石油学会五点政策路线图中概述的政策,以释放美国的能源安全并帮助降低通货膨胀。

API 总裁兼首席执行官 Mike Sommers 表示:“美国继续成为全球能源生产领导者,但美国人民认识到,华盛顿的领导人必须推进一项议程,以在未来几十年内增强我国的能源优势。随着地缘政治紧张局势加剧和通货膨胀仍然是首要问题,我们需要制定政策来加强美国能源在世界舞台上的作用,并支持消费者获得他们所需的廉价、可靠的能源。”

API: New poll shows swing state voters back policies boosting U.S. oil, gas production

August 15, 2024

(WO) — The American Petroleum Institute (API) has released new battleground state polling conducted by Morning Consult demonstrating widespread support for policies that encourage domestic oil and natural gas production and limit reliance on foreign sources.

The poll shows inflation remains a top concern for voters in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, and an overwhelming majority oppose vehicle mandates. As Congress continues to debate bipartisan permitting reform legislation, voters in battleground states expressed strong support for reforms to streamline the approval process for energy infrastructure projects. 

With less than 100 days until Election Day, API is urging policymakers on both sides of the aisle to support commonsense energy policies, including those outlined in API’s Five Point Policy Roadmap to unleash America’s energy security and help reduce inflation.

“The U.S. continues to be a global leader in energy production, but the American people recognize that our leaders in Washington must advance an agenda to grow our nation’s energy advantage for decades to come,” Mike Sommers, API president and CEO, said. “With geopolitical tensions rising and inflation remaining a top concern, we need policies that reinforce the role of American energy on the world stage and support access to the affordable, reliable energy consumers need.” 

The poll conducted by Morning Consult found: 

  • Over 90% of voters are concerned about inflation. (AZ: 94% GA: 93% MI 94% NV: 94% NC: 92% PA: 91% WI: 91%)
  • 80% of voters agree that producing more oil and natural gas in the U.S. could help lower energy and utility costs for American consumers. (AZ: 83% GA: 88% MI: 84% NV: 86% NC: 85% PA: 83% WI: 80%)
  • A majority of voters oppose government mandates that restrict consumer choice, including banning new gasoline, diesel and hybrid vehicles. (AZ: 69% GA: 76% MI: 80% NV: 75% NC: 75% PA: 77% WI: 78%)
  • About 80% of voters support fixing our broken permitting system to streamline the process of approving energy infrastructure projects. (AZ: 79% GA: 81% MI: 82% NV: 81% NC: 80% PA: 84% WI: 80%)
  • Over 80% of voters agree producing oil and natural gas here in America helps make our country more secure against foreign adversaries. (AZ: 89% GA: 91% MI: 87% NV: 85% NC: 88% PA: 86% WI: 87%)
  • More than 80% support leveraging America’s domestic resources rather than relying on other regions of the world. (AZ: 85% GA: 89% MI: 86% NV: 82% NC: 82% PA: 86% WI: 84%)
