It is the policy of the United States that— all citizens should have equal access to affordable and reliable energy to maintain personal health and economic security; the United States should mitigate the disparate impact of increases in the cost of energy on at-risk communities because such communities are more likely to have a fixed income and spend a higher percentage of their income on energy than the general population; and to prevent energy poverty and to ensure that each at-risk community has access to affordable energy, the United States should ensure that laws relating to environmental and energy policy, including the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 ( 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq. ), the Endangered Species Act of 1973 ( 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq. ), and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act ( 16 U.S.C. 703 et seq. ), do not have the effect of increasing the cost of energy for any at-risk community.
