Oil, gas are still assets
In the wake of the crisis in Ukraine, last month the U.S. Secretary of Energy called upon American energy producers to increase output “to stabilize the market and minimize harm to American families.” This comes after more than a year of this administration taking deliberate steps to discourage, and in some cases halt, oil and natural gas production in our country, in addition to calling for an end to drilling during the 2020 campaign. American consumers are suffering with skyrocketing prices and feeling the repercussions of canceled pipeline projects, halted leases on federal lands, delayed approvals for permits and the discouragement of additional expansion — poor, short-sighted decisions that are exacerbated by the war.

Letters: Old gas receipt spurs comment
I was cleaning out the center console of my truck and found a gas ticket from April 2019. I paid $1.89 per gallon for mid-grade gasoline. I was amazed at how high the price of gas has risen, but that should be no surprise given Joe Biden’s agenda of closing off federal lands to drilling for oil and canceling the Keystone pipeline — promises made and kept.
Texas history makes a difference in our lives
March is Texas History Month, and our state’s rich heritage is as much a path forward as a look back. Just ask youngsters taught their unique heritage in fourth and seventh grades or adults who kept those childhood history lessons close to their hearts throughout their lives.
