America First Energy Act
HR 1365, the America First Energy Act, amends membership rules for the Department of Energy's Foundation. It requires all voting members, the Executive Director, and officers/employees to be U.S. citizens, nationals, refugees under specific immigration provisions, or lawful permanent residents. The bill does not change energy policy or funding but sets new citizenship and immigration status requirements for leadership roles. This procedural change affects only the personnel structure of the Foundation, not broader energy programs or regulations.
