Has cosponsored and supported legislation to resume oil and gas lease sales and increase domestic energy production. Expresses skepticism about large-scale proposals like the Green New Deal and has questioned aspects of climate-change policy implementation.
Public Safety & Guns
Tom Tiffany has sponsored and cosponsored federal legislation that would expand carry rights nationwide and roll back local firearm restrictions, and has supported measures protecting broad Second Amendment rights.
