On February 14, 2025, President Trump issued Executive Order 14213, establishing a “National Energy Dominance Council” to further his energy agenda, which centers on the rapid expansion of fossil fuel infrastructure. The council will be composed of a number of agency heads and other executive staff. The order outlines a list of functions for the council, which include “advis[ing] the President on how best to exercise his authority to produce more energy to make America energy dominant; [] advis[ing] the President on improving the processes for permitting, production, generation, distribution, regulation, transportation, and export of all forms of American energy, including critical minerals;” and more.
