This resolution commemorates the 10th anniversary of the first export shipment of liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the lower 48 United States, which took place on February 24, 2016. The historic shipment, carried by the Asia Vision from Cheniere's Sabine Pass facility to Brazil, marked a significant milestone in American energy production and global trade. It demonstrated the nation's technological innovation, workforce expertise, and private sector investment, establishing the U.S. as a reliable supplier of LNG to international markets. Over the past decade, these LNG exports have significantly supported U.S. economic growth, contributing over $400 billion and creating an annual average of 273,000 American jobs across the energy value chain. The United States has emerged as the largest global exporter of LNG , shipping more than 8,500 cargoes to over 40 countries and regions, thereby enhancing the energy security of allies and partners. The resolution celebrates this achievement, honors the individuals and communities who made it possible, and reaffirms the importance of continued innovation and leadership in the responsible development of American energy resources.
