Pete Sessions votes "no" on responsible drilling

Pete Sessions and House Republicans helped sink a bill designed to require energy companies to explore and drill on land where they've already obtained leases. H.R. 6511 passed 244-173, but failed to attain the 2/3 necessary to override a veto. (See Roll No. 511).
