'TwHor Austin, TX The Honorable Scott Pruitt USEPA Headquarters - William Jefferson Clinton Building 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W. - Mail Code: 1101A Washington, DC 20460 Dear Secretary Pruitt; Our country stands at a crossroads of two powerful but conflicting forces that will determine the future of human society in the 21s1 century. On one side is the historical opportunity the United States now holds to become the world's dominating energy superpower as an ignition switch for vigorous economic growth and full employment. On the other side is coercive federal and state policy to supplant fossil fuels and thus undermining the energy boom and the economic resurgence it promises. As this conflict persists, The Texas Public Policy Foundation (TPPF) and the Heritage Foundation invite you to participate as a keynote speaker at our 4th annual "At the Crossroads: Energy and Climate Policy Summit." This Summit will be on November 30,2017 in Washington DC at the headquarters ofthe Heritage Foundation. Your speech is currently scheduled at 10:45 am but could be adjusted to accommodate your schedule. Please find the attached tentative agenda for the entire program, which features a highly distinguished array of scientists, office holders, policy makers, economists, energy industry leaders and diverse academics. Your keynote speech would be the apogee of this Summit's wide-ranging consideration of President Trump's and your policy visions, America's unprecedented energy opportunities and the misguided climate policies of past Administrations. We salute your courageous, effective leadership as Administrator of the EPA and so hope you will be able to participate in this important event. As in past Summits, Crossroads will bring together national policy makers and globally recognized thought leaders in diverse disciplines to discuss the many issues surrounding energy, economic growth, job creation, climate science, law and ethics. Under the new Administration of President Donald Trump, it is particularly important that we revisit these issues at Crossroads 4. Please find the agenda of last year's Crossroads Summit to remind you of the scope of the issues covered and your fellow co-speakers. Last year's Summit was an incredible success in spreading our message as we more than doubled our online and broadcast media hits (240) and more than quadrupled the audience size (235 Million online and broadcast media impressions) from our Inaugural Summit in 2014. We also had over 2,000 liyestream views. A coverage increase ofthis magnitude reflects the general public growing'questions about an issue that, most certainly, is not settled.
