On “Kudlow,” Continental Resources’ chairman and founder expressed concern over the potential consequences of flawed energy policies throughout different administrations and stressed the importance of getting it right this time. “Energy independence,” he stated, “it means world peace.”
Despite President Biden’s recent anti-fossil fuel stance, Hamm believes that the American people are not receptive to such drastic changes.
The Biden administration’s proposed policies and legislation, including substantial climate change spending, a halt on federal land and offshore drilling, and a mandate for electric-only vehicles by 2035, face resistance from the conservative camp.

Hamm, however, remains confident that these sweeping renewable energy proposals will not come to fruition, highlighting the downturn in electric vehicle sales and the financial struggles of major corporations in the EV sector.
A June poll sponsored by the Committee to Unleash Prosperity further solidified the public sentiment against forced electric vehicle adoption, with a staggering 77% of respondents opposing the idea.
Despite Biden’s efforts to shift away from fossil fuels, Hamm emphasized the significant strides made in environmental improvement through clean-burning natural gas.

He pointed out that the halt on federal land development has negatively impacted the country’s productive capacity and exacerbated inflation, ultimately burdening consumers.

In conclusion, Harold Hamm’s cautions about the Biden administration’s energy policies echo the sentiments of conservative voices.
His call for prudently managed energy policies, with a focus on maintaining America’s energy independence, resonates with those concerned about the potential adverse economic impacts of a rapid green transition.
