Miller | M001205 | miller.house.gov | miller | https://miller.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congresswoman Carol Miller (R-WV) joined WOWK13 News’ Inside West Virginia Politics to discuss American energy independence and the Mountain Valley Pipeline. She also highlighted the House Republican Commitment to America and her No Surprises for Survivors Act, bipartisan legislation that will protect survivors of sexual violence from unexpected bills for forensic medical exams, commonly known as rape kits. Image Highlights: On American Energy Independence and the Mountain Valley Pipeline: “[The Mountain Valley Pipeline] has been 94% completed for quite a while. I don’t understand why we stop our energy sources when we should be as energy independent as possible. This is just one more kick in the teeth to West Virginia and to our country.” “[The Mountain Valley Pipeline] needs to be on the front burner. We’ve been struggling with it since Biden first took office. We have to be energy independent. We certainly should learn from Europe on what happens when you’re not. I don’t like living off of reserves quite frankly. They’re there for a reason, but it’s not just to power us. We need to be producing energy.” On the Commitment to America: “One is that we have an economy that is strong. Fighting inflation. I’ve been wearing a pin for quite a while that says ‘It’s the spending stupid.’ We are spending money that we don’t have hand over fist and America is really suffering. I don’t know if you’ve bought a 2x4 or a sheet of plywood, or maybe you’ve been to the grocery store and bought milk and bacon…It’s time to stop spending and put people back to work.” “The other is a nation that is safe. I have been to the border and seen how open it is. In our state, in particular, we have a sensitivity to the opioid epidemic and drugs. The fentanyl that is coming through our border – it’s criminal what is happening…We want a country that is safe. We want an economy that’s strong. And we also want a country that’s still built on freedom. We just need to restore the people’s voice in their government.” On the No Surprises for Survivors Act: “The most horrific thing a woman would experience is rape. They should not have to pay to have a rape kit done on them because that’s part of the procedure for the police department to help them identify that they actually have been indeed raped and that they have the evidence. To me, it’s a very simple, easy thing to do, and that is to protect people who have already gone through a horrendous experience.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T03:20:33Z |
