Vasquez responds to EPA rollback: U.S. Rep. Gabe Vasquez said the EPA’s move to roll back methane rules was “the wrong choice” and argued that energy production can continue while maintaining stronger air protections for workers and families.
What the statement says: Vasquez said excess methane emissions are linked to respiratory and other health problems, and noted that some Permian Basin producers have adopted technology to reduce leaks and capture methane. He said that effort “must continue.”
Background cited in the release: The statement says the 2023 methane rule tightened standards for oil and gas operations by requiring leak monitoring, faster repairs, limits on routine flaring, and state plans for existing facilities. The release says the rollback would weaken those requirements.
