Pete Olson (TX-22) today issued the following statement in response to reports that former Texas Governor Rick Perry will be named Secretary of the US Department of Energy (DOE): “Rick Perry was an exceptional governor for the State of Texas. Representing an energy heavy state like Texas, including Houston, the global capital for energy production, gives him a unique level of expertise in dealing with issues that will come before the Department of Energy. Beyond traditional energy matters, I am confident of his ability to navigate nuclear and other national security matters that will come before DOE. It was a pleasure to work with him on Texas matters and it will be a pleasure to work with him at DOE.” Media Contact: Melissa Kelly 202-225-5951 | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
