Hope you are doing well!
I wanted to send this invitation for Secretary Wright to you personally. We are hopeful that Secretary Wright can attend both events but please let me know if one or the other works better for the Secretary's schedule. I'll serve as the main point of contact for any questions or concerns as well as assisting the Secretary's advance/security teams in Texas.
Best, Carolyn Farrell

The Honorable Christopher Wright Secretary, U.S. Department of Energy 1000 Independence Avenue, SW Washington. D.C. 20585
Dear Secretary Wright,
On behalf of the American Gas Association (AGA), I am pleased to invite you to address our membership as a keynote speaker at two of our consecutive fall events:
Executive Conference -- Monday, October 6, 2025 Board of Directors Meeting -- Tuesday, October 7, 2025
These events will be held in San Antonio, Texas and will convene the chief executive officers and senior leadership of our more than 200 member companies, which collectively deliver natural gas to more than 189 million Americans and represent 95% of natural gas delivered in

the United States. The Executive Conference will have an audience of over 200 high level executives including the AGA Board CEOs, and the Board meeting will be 40 natural gas utility CEOs.
Your leadership at the Department of Energy has reinforced the critical role of natural gas in securing America's energy future. From advancing new infrastructure to supporting expanded LNG exports, your policy direction underscores a clear recognition that American energy abundance--particularly in natural gas-is key to economic growth, global competitiveness, and national resilience. President Trump's renewed focus on unleashing domestic production, cutting unnecessary red tape, and strengthening our energy supply chain has been a galvanizing force for our industry. These priorities reflect AGA's ongoing commitment to delivering safe, dependable, and low-emissions energy to homes and businesses across the country.
As we look toward the future, our members would welcome your insights on the pivotal role natural gas will play in securing America's future, permitting reform, energy workforce development, and innovative technologies. These key areas are vital to ensuring the long-term strength and resilience of our sector. Additionally, our members are eager to hear your thoughts on how public and private sector partnerships can strengthen energy reliability, reduce barriers to growth, and ensure access to affordable energy for American households and businesses.
We would be honored to feature your leadership in these conversations and will gladly coordinate with your office to accommodate your schedule and logistical preferences.
Thank you for considering this invitation. We hope to welcome you this October.
Kind regards,
Karen A. Harbert President and Chief Executive Officer American Gas Association
