Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., talks to reporters after passing the GOP's sprawling energy package that would counter virtually all of President Joe Biden's agenda to address climate change, at the Capitol in Washington, Thursday, March 30, 2023. The bill, which now goes to the Senate, would sharply increase domestic production of oil, natural gas and coal, and ease permitting restrictions that delay pipelines, refineries and other projects.
