HR 4629 United States House · 119th Congress

Protecting American Energy from State Overreach Codification Act

This bill makes Executive Order 14260 permanent law, which prohibits states from imposing regulations that conflict with federal energy policies. It directly affects state governments and federal agencies by requiring states to align energy regulations with federal directives. The key mechanism is codifying the existing executive order, ensuring it has the force of law without needing future presidential action. This does not create new regulations but solidifies current federal authority over state energy oversight.
