National Energy Dominance Month, 2026

Proclamation 11072 of October 7, 2026

National Energy Dominance Month, 2026

By the President of the United States of America

A Proclamation

America's abundant energy resources are the backbone of
our booming economy and the foundation of our enduring
prosperity. During National Energy Dominance Month, we
recommit to unleashing the full might of America's vast
natural resources, strengthening our Nation's energy
independence, and ushering in a new era of American
energy dominance.

In less than 2 years since returning to office, my
Administration has transformed the United States into
the most dominant energy superpower in the history of
the world. We have reversed the disastrous oil, gas,
and vehicle regulations that crippled our industries,
burdened consumers, and stifled economic growth,
including rescinding the Obama-era Endangerment Finding
this past February--a ruling that handed Washington
bureaucrats sweeping power to over regulate our
vehicles and power plants in the name of climate
alarmism. Its repeal stands as the single largest
deregulatory action in American history.

We have unleashed millions of acres of Federal land for
oil, gas, and coal production, approving over 6,000
drilling permits--more than in any year in over a
decade. We have also committed over $1 billion to the
revitalization of America's beautiful, clean coal
industry; saved over 100 coal plants; ended the freeze
on new natural gas export terminals; secured historic
investments in nuclear energy; ended the Green New
Scam; and withdrawn from the restrictive international
climate agreements crafted by globalist politicians to
plunder our wealth and undermine our sovereignty. We
are also restoring the reliable, affordable power
America needs to lead the world in manufacturing, super
intelligence, and advanced technology; cutting the red
tape that has delayed critical generation and grid
infrastructure; strengthening our electric system; and
ensuring that American workers and businesses have the
abundant power needed to build, innovate, and compete--
without depending on foreign adversaries or unreliable
energy schemes.

Last month, my Administration took a historic step in
achieving America's full energy potential by securing
the largest oil deal in all of human history. This
landmark agreement gives our Nation majority control of
more than 65 billion barrels of proven oil reserves in
Venezuela--vastly increasing America's oil supply,
asserting our unrivaled power in the Western
Hemisphere, and securing our energy dominance for the
next century and beyond.

While this work is far from finished, our energy
industry and hardworking families are reaping the
benefits of these tremendous actions. America achieved
record domestic oil and gas production along with
record levels of liquefied natural gas exports in 2025,
and 2026 is on pace to shatter those records once
again. Under my leadership, American energy is roaring
back to life with new pipelines, export terminals,
power plants, and nuclear reactors set to come online
across the country, creating thousands of new high-
paying jobs for American workers in the years ahead. As
President, I will continue fighting to drive down the
cost of the energy that fills our tanks and powers our
homes, and I will not rest until the full benefits of
American prosperity are felt in every home across our
land. On March

4, 2026, I arranged for the Ratepayer Protection
Pledge, addressing electric power affordability for
American households and businesses.

This month, we pledge to continue to chart a bold new
course for American energy--harnessing the
extraordinary abundance beneath our soil and securing a
future of strength, prosperity, and independence. Our
Nation's energy renaissance is only just beginning, and
the best is still yet to come.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the
United States of America, by virtue of the authority
vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the
United States, do hereby proclaim October 2026 as
National Energy Dominance Month.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
seventh day of October, in the year of our Lord two
thousand twenty-six, and of the Independence of the
United States of America the two hundred and fifty-
first.
