Energy companies would go to FERC for approval to build or expand gas import and export facilities. FERC would have to treat the gas trade itself as good for the public. Other safety, environmental, sanctions, and emergency powers would still apply.

Unlocking our Domestic LNG Potential Act of 2025 is a Senate bill waiting for floor action. The latest recorded action: Read the second time. Placed on Senate Legislative Calendar under General Orders. Calendar No. 286.
Latest action on H.R. 1949: Read the second time. Placed on Senate Legislative Calendar under General Orders. Calendar No. 286.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects energy companies that want to build, expand, or run natural gas import and export facilities. It also matters for communities near proposed LNG terminals and related infrastructure. U.S. gas producers, foreign buyers, federal agencies, and consumers could also feel effects, but the size of those effects is uncertain.
Why this matters: This bill matters because it could make LNG and natural gas export projects easier to approve. Today, broader fights over exports can happen through more than one federal review. The bill would put the facility decision with FERC and require FERC to treat gas imports and exports as in the public interest. That could help projects move faster, but it could also leave fewer places to press concerns about climate, prices, or local harm.
