Hi there, OnPolitics readers!

House Republicans voted today to pass the Lower Energy Costs Act, which the nearly 50 GOP cosponsors say will reduce energy costs for families and restore American energy independence  amid House Speaker Kevin McCarthy's call to restart budget discussions with President Joe Biden.

Biden has said he will veto the bill if it comes to his desk as is, also stating that the bill would take the country "backward" in a statement.
