Pass bill restricting presidential fracking moratoriums
The bill would bar the President from declaring a moratorium on hydraulic fracturing unless Congress authorized it, and would express Congress’s view that states should retain primary regulatory authority over fracking on state and private lands. The House voted on final passage, and the bill passed. This vote approved the bill; it did not itself establish that its provisions had taken effect.
