Oil from Canada is in such abundance it can provide the United States with nearly 170 billion barrels of oil and remain our nation's biggest supplier of imported oil.
Issues
Lower Input Costs
A safe, reliable energy supply will provide Nebraska farmers, ranchers and manufacturers with a stable supply of energy -- that means less price volatility and lower input costs.
American Energy Security
Importing oil from our allies and friends is not only good for our national security -- it's good for our financial security.
Other Energy Issues
The United States' energy demand is projected to grow through 2030, and America is striving to meet its growing energy demands with all viable sources, including fossil fuels, renewables and alternative energy supplies.
