Senator Warner recently spoke about the need for energy innovation during the Council on Competitiveness' National Energy Summit and International Dialogue.

While he said he had some concerns about certain provisions of the energy legislation approved by the House earlier this year, Senator Warner outlined the reasons why it is critically important to work for solutions that will promote innovation and entrepreneurship: 

"The idea that we're going to, for one more year, delay trying to take on this critically important issue around energy, would be a competitive, financial, and potentially environmental disaster."

In his remarks, Senator Warner discussed the reasons why we need to create a new energy policy that will help keep the U.S. safer and more competitive.
