PCCA and Coalition Support the Prove It Act of 2025 (H.R. 1163) to strengthen the Regulatory Flexibility Act
PCCA sent a letter to House leadership this week supporting permitting reforms in the SPEED Act that would shorten permitting timelines, reduce frivolous litigation, and clarify when NEPA analysis is required, making it easier for pipeline contractors to build the infrastructure Americans depend on.
"When attempting to maintain and build critical power and communication infrastructure, PCCA member contractors report needless delays, bureaucratic red tape, and uncertainty as a result of the National Environmental Policy Act," PCCA wrote.
"PCCA urges swift passage of the SPEED Act, expected on the House floor this week, because it supports power and communications infrastructure and lowers costs for families by increasing efficiency, public transparency, and accountability in the infrastructure permitting process."
The November 4, 2025, election results delivered sweeping victories for Democratic Party candidates in the handful of off-year state-wide elections.
Nationally, Democratic Party pundits are calling decisive wins in New Jersey and Virginia a repudiation of policies advanced by President Trump and a Republican-controlled Congress—and a “blue wave” bellwether for future elections.
In an October 21 letter, PCCA expressed support for strong underground damage prevention laws and commended the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation for introducing the Pipeline Integrity, Protection, and Enhancement for Leveraging Investments in the Nation’s Energy to assure Safety, or PIPELINE Safety Act of 2025 (S. 2975), on October 6 and marking it up Oct. 21.
