LNG Export Security Act
The LNG Export Security Act amends the Natural Gas Act to redefine 'public interest' when evaluating natural gas projects. This change requires federal officials to explicitly consider the development of U.S. gas facilities, domestic supply levels, economic interests, and national security. The bill directly affects regulators and companies involved in natural gas exports by adding specific criteria they must weigh in their decisions.
