Dear Chiefs of Staff of the Senate Energy & Natural Resources Committee (ENR) and the Nebraska Senate Delegation,

PLEASE DO NOT ADOPT INCOMPLETE S. 2012

If this incomplete bill is adopted, economic and societal mayhem may ensue if you are not prepared with an antidote.
Specifically, the bill and its amendments make no mention of the likely impacts of a sustained low price of oil and gas. Any
energy bill in the context of the current crisis that the industry is facing is incomplete and irresponsible if that context is not
investigated and reported objectively and thoroughly.

Your responsibility is to ensure legislation is in the National and Public interest.

S. 2012 is not in the Public Interest
S. 2012 is not in the National Interest

S. 2012 would leave the U.S. susceptible to National Security degradation

S. 2012 gives no consideration to the financial viability of Americas oil and gas
companies.
I repeat my admonition from several previous emails to you:
I am imploring Senator Lisa Murkowski, ENR staff and Messrs. Tillerson
and Woods to collaborate in organizing a series of hearings to explore
how to deal with the implicit legal conflicts that are presently evolving by
the nexus of events that are already looming large in everyday news, as
well as building behind the scenes in Board Rooms around the world."
Please conduct hearings in the Pubic Interest and in the National Interest.
Lets manage oil and gasour national resourceresponsibly.
Sincerely yours,
Doug Grandt
