U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Auburn) is putting forward a bill he believes will help propel America’s energy dominance, while also giving more choices to American consumers.

The Energy Choice Act of 2025 would bar states and local governments from taking away consumer choice and work toward advancing President Trump’s vision of unleashing American energy. Tuberville was joined by U.S. Senators Jim Justice (R-W.Va.) and Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.) in introducing the legislation.

“For four years, Joe Biden and woke Democrats took a sledgehammer to American energy production,” Tuberville said.

“We need to rein in blue states that caved to the climate-cult and imposed ridiculous regulations that are deeply unpopular with hardworking Americans. Thankfully, President Trump is working around the clock to unleash America’s energy potential. I’m proud to join my colleagues to support President Trump, restore American energy dominance, and preserve consumer choice.”

The senators argue that the Biden administration and many blue states took energy freedom away from consumers by restricting specific sources of energy—effectively, targeting natural gas and fossil fuels.

“I am an energy guy from an energy-rich state. I know how important freedom of energy production is – which is why I’m proud to introduce Energy Choice Act of 2025. President Trump has stated the need to unleash American energy, and this bill helps facilitate just that,” Justice said. “We have too great an energy crisis in this country, and we don’t have the luxury of picking the winners and losers when it comes to energy production.”

“Americans ought to have the right to choose what is best for their energy needs.”

The bill has been endorsed by over a dozen organizations with ties to the energy industry.
