New speakers added and @Ben_Geman of @axios to moderate our report launch event next week:. The #PillarsofPower explores how #energy security, #mineral supply, #innovation, and #manufacturing capacity are all needed for our Defense capability. Register:.

Should we focus on securing traditional energy and mineral resources, or on developing and scaling alternatives and efficient solutions? For America to operate from a position of strength, we must do both. Join us on July 21 for a webinar to launch The Pillars of Power: A

A combination of steadily tightening prohibited foreign entity restrictions + gradual credit phase out creates a narrow window of opportunity for advanced energy manufacturing projects. #energytaxcredits #batteries . Our take in @heatmap_news .

What do changes to the #45X tax credit mean for critical minerals production? We weigh in in the @FT. Achieving critical mineral security is a far steeper climb with these the new sunsets and restrictions to 45X.

Beyond gutting advanced energy tax credits, the Senate's OBBBA has a bonus energy security disaster: It eviscerates the fuel economy program. From General Carlton Everhart (Ret.): Americans will regret Washington's oil market hubris.

"Where the original Senate version was a recipe for energy stagnation, this is outright energy surrender—all but guaranteeing Chinese dominance of critical minerals, industrial supply chains, and AI development. It snatches defeat from the jaws of victory." . Read our full.

🎉 SAFE’s Joshua Kroon has been appointed as Deputy Assistant Secretary for the International Trade Admin with critical minerals under his purview. Huge congratulations to Josh—we’re thrilled he will bring his national security perspective to the role, and SAFE looks forward to.

🚨 “We’re running out of time. ” SAFE launches TV and digital ad campaign urging support for advanced energy tax credits. China isn’t holding back in the race for energy dominance; neither should we. Watch the ad and tell your Senators. Learn more:

🚨 Big win for American drone leadership. SAFE’s Coalition for Reimagined Mobility applauds the EO championing U.S. leadership in drone technology and AAM. Prioritizing U.S. manufacturing, securing our skies, & modernizing regs. This is how we lead. 🔗

While the US has failed to act, China has taken control of global mineral supply chains. The Finding ORE Act finally “ensures we show up in resource-rich nations,” rather than leaving them to China. The bill takes a critical step towards countering Chinese mineral dominance.

Raw materials & industrial capacities are a matter of life or death in warfare – powering key military technologies. A robust industrial base that supports both defense and commercial needs is not just beneficial—it's essential for national resilience. Read more:.

🚨 $14B in energy projects canceled. 10,000+ jobs gone. New data links these losses to efforts to repeal Inflation Reduction Act tax credits—jeopardizing U.S. manufacturing & jobs. With more than $12B of the losses hitting Republican districts, we need to protect these vital.

🚗 Chinese EVs now outsell Tesla in Europe. 📖 It's not just about cars—it’s the same playbook China used in critical minerals: long-term strategy + anticompetitive tactics. 🏗️ Will the U.S. & allies cede the future—or respond with smart, resilient industrial policy?. 🔗.

⚡️ Changes to energy tax credits by the House will undermine our national security & hold back industry. 🔗 These credits are important tools that support military readiness, energy resilience, & technological leadership. 🌐 Our adversaries aren’t holding back in this strategic.
