Increase domestic energy production and improve energy infrastructure across North America.
One policy goal, tracked across every bill that has carried it.
What’s happening with North American Energy Act?
The North American Energy Act is represented by S. 1485, which has been in the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources since April 9, 2025. The committee members must act next to move the bill forward, but the primary constraint is that most bills fail because they never receive a committee vote. This effort follows a similar path to S. 989, which expired in the previous session after no action was taken following its introduction on March 26, 2023.
