Urging the Export-Import Bank of the United States to prioritize funding for domestic projects, including the Alaska Liquefied Natural Gas project, that do not compete with long-term national export goals.

HJR 16 is a resolution passed by the Alaska State Legislature urging the Export-Import Bank of the United States to prioritize funding for domestic projects like the Alaska Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) project over the Mozambique LNG project. It requests the bank reconsider its funding for Mozambique LNG - which has a 43 million metric ton annual capacity - arguing it competes with Alaska's project and could reduce demand for domestic LNG exports. The resolution specifically cites Alaska LNG's planned 20,000 metric ton annual capacity and 2031 export timeline as projects that align with national energy security goals. It directs the bank to provide similar support for Alaska LNG as it has for Mozambique LNG, ensuring funding decisions align with long-term U.S. export interests.
