To pull the state out of its hole, Mr McCain offers low taxes, retraining and an all-inclusive energy policy.

And yet, for all its imperfections, the Turtle King was so much more practical than sitting in a stopped taxi or crowding onto a Beijing bus that it had become what all new-energy technology is somehow supposed to be: cheap, simple, and unobtrusive enough so that using it is no longer a matter of sacrifice but one of self-interest.
The potential of a sustained, all-of-the-above energy strategy is all around us.
We talked about the vitally important need to extend the wind energy tax credit that has bipartisan support, that the industry has made clear if not extended could threaten up to 37, 000 jobs in the United States, and that is part of an overall vision for an all-of-the above energy future that the President has put forward at a substantive policy level again and again.
Two years ago, the government required China's 1, 000 largest industrial consumers--which account for about a third of all Chinese energy demand--to establish their own programs and auditing systems to meet efficiency standards.
But over the long term, an all-of-the-above energy strategy means we have to do more.

But over the long term, an all-of-the-above energy strategy requires us having the right priorities.
Two, this President is aggressively advocating for and pursuing an all-of-the-above energy strategy as a matter of policy.
Among all the energy-supply technologies, the three with the biggest potential today are solar power, wind power and nuclear power.
Because an all-of-the-above energy approach requires and necessitates that we aggressively expand domestic oil and gas production in a safe and responsible way.
It's going to be solved by a sustained, all-of-the-above energy strategy.
Furthermore, oil-dependent governments, facing a population boom and realizing that they need to diversify their economy to create jobs and wealth, are subsidizing the industrial sector to manufacture plastics, chemicals and aluminum, all energy-intensive goods.

But the -- as part of a two-day trip to highlight his all-of-the-above energy strategy, which includes, obviously, a focus on development of battery technology, which is the essential ingredient to these kinds of automobiles.
So this President will continue to push for an all-of-the-above energy approach that ensures that we aggressively pursue domestic oil and gas production, that we aggressively pursue renewable energy production and make the investments necessary to secure our future.
And that's why we've got to pursue an all-of-the-above energy strategy that includes investing in more biofuels and more fuel-efficient vehicles, and more solar power and more wind power, and more people going back to work building cars and homes and businesses that are more energy efficient than the ones that we've got right now.

American lawmakers, at any rate, seem convinced: they slipped an extension of all-important subsidies for renewable energy into the recent bail-out for financial services.
Ambitious plans for offshore renewable energy projects are crowding the waters--floating wind farms, tidal-power turbines and wave-energy barges--all expected in the next decade.
The aides also said the stimulus package could provide funds to help states struggling with their own budgets, as well as infrastructure money, an extension of unemployment benefits, food stamps and more money for low-income energy assistance -- all measures that have passed the House before.

But make no mistake about it--they are all aware that the long-term energy future for Texas lies in cleaner technologies, and they are planning their business strategies accordingly.
The executive order sets a goal of a 10 percent reduction energy use in all federal facilities during peak energy-use hours.
Entitlement reform, tax policy and revenue-drawing energy programs are all subject to non-budget related congressional battles.
Providing assistance for carbon-tax-induced increases in energy bills to all low- and moderate-income households would require a major expansion of the program, a substantial increase in administrative costs, and possibly a major overhaul of the program.

Iowa, you can choose an energy plan written by and for the big oil companies, or you can choose an all-of-the above energy strategy for America. (Applause.) At a time when homegrown energy is creating new jobs right here in Iowa, when farmers are helping to create new biofuels, when once-shuttered factories are churning out new wind turbines -- (applause) -- my opponent wants to end tax credits for wind energy producers.
Rarely do all three energy subsectors--production, petrochemicals and refining--move together, but it could happen soon.
Or you can choose what I've offered, an all-of-the above strategy for American energy.
