For too long, the Constitution Pipeline has been caught in a cycle of approvals, reversals, delays, and uncertainty. That kind of regulatory whiplash makes it harder to attract the long-term investment needed to build critical energy infrastructure.
The Constitution Pipeline would connect abundant, affordable Marcellus natural gas to consumers in New York and New England, regions that continue to face some of the highest energy costs in the country. The Department of Energy's decision to advance the project is an encouraging signal that infrastructure needed to deliver reliable, affordable energy is once again being prioritized

However, building the Constitution Pipeline and other energy infrastructure will take more than just funding. Permitting reform is the clearest path to bringing projects like this to fruition when Americans need them most, and Congress has a bipartisan bill ready to move.

The Energy Department is backing the proposed Constitution Pipeline with up to $42 million as developers seek to bring the Northeast natural gas project online by 2028.
