The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is blessed to sit atop a massive expanse of natural resources which has always been a key driver of our economy. Barletta will be a champion of the production of coal, oil, and natural gas, which are industries targeted by liberals intent on taking those jobs away from our citizens. Thousands of well-paying union jobs have vanished because of regulations, freezes, and bans, and Barletta will fight to restore our energy sector prominence. Barletta will also promote the extraction of rare earth minerals.
