RFK Jr's vow to ban fracking met with intense criticism
Fox News
Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. promised to ban fracking as president despite its economic and energy security benefits.
"I told all of you that this guy is anti-freedom," energy expert Alex Epstein said in response to Kennedy's post. "Banning fracking would immediately plunge the US into a depression. And [Kennedy] would do it to 'solve' an amorphous 'plastics crisis.'" Thomas Catenacci is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
"I know some conservatives who like RFK Jr but this is 100 percent disqualifying," added Isaac Orr, a policy fellow focusing on energy issues at the Center of the American Experiment. "We rightly criticize Biden for limiting oil and gas production but even he hasn’t been this vocal about banning fracking."
