McCormick, Fetterman Unveil Bill To Move Office That Manages America's Oil Reserves From DC to Pittsburgh

Pennsylvania's two senators are joining forces in an attempt to relocate the Department of Energy's fossil fuel office to Pittsburgh, a blue-collar city with a rich manufacturing and energy legacy, the Washington Free Beacon has learned. Sens. Dave McCormick (R.) and John Fetterman (D.) introduced legislation Thursday that would move the Energy Department's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management to the Steel City, an action the lawmakers say would bring federal officials closer to the industries and people they regulate. The bill would impact the office's entire 750-person staff and mandate that the relocation takes place within 12 months.
