This morning, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, chaired by Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), convened a field hearing in Corpus Christi, TX, to assess the energy boom that is happening in South Texas and along the Gulf Coast. Among the witnesses scheduled to testify, the prepared remarks of Scott Stanford, Operations Manager for the Corpus Christi-based Royal Production Company provide real-world evidence that the Obama administration’s bureaucratic bonanza is slowing economic growth and harming small businesses in the energy sector.
