National Energy Security Intelligence Act of 2008

The National Energy Security Intelligence Act of 2008 would require the Director of National Intelligence to provide Congress with a comprehensive assessment of how rising energy costs affect U.S. national security. This report would analyze the future supply, demand, and pricing of oil, natural gas, and alternative fuels, while also evaluating the production plans of major energy-exporting countries. For citizens, this bill aims to provide federal lawmakers with better data to understand how global energy markets impact domestic prices and to help shape long-term strategies for national energy independence.
