Chris Wright has been confirmed by the Senate as President Trump’s Secretary of Energy, where he will play a key role in advancing the president’s “Drill, baby, drill” energy agenda. Wright, CEO and founder of Liberty Energy Inc. since 2011, earned bipartisan support, passing the Senate vote 59-38. As Secretary, he will work closely with Trump to enhance U.S. energy production and security. Trump declared an “energy emergency” on his first day in office, reversing Biden-era policies, ending the LNG export pause, and rolling back climate standards. Wright’s confirmation hearing highlighted his focus on increasing American energy production, aligning with Trump’s priority to bolster the domestic energy sector. Trump’s emergency declaration underscores the need to address energy vulnerabilities, strengthen infrastructure, and reduce reliance on foreign energy sources to protect U.S. national and economic security. The goal is to improve energy independence, create jobs, and enhance global competitiveness.
