The week ahead: House GOP set to subpoena White House over Solyndra

The second hearing, of the committee’s regulatory affairs subcommittee on Wednesday, is titled, “The Green Energy Debacle: Where Has All The Taxpayer Money Gone?”

A panel of the House Natural Resources Committee will meet Wednesday to examine drilling in Cuba and other countries near the United States. Officials have warned in recent months that foreign drilling could threaten U.S. coastal areas.

The committee will also meet Wednesday for the second part of its examination of a recent federal report that blamed BP and its contractors for last year’s oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

Meanwhile, the Senate is expected to vote this week on a package that includes several appropriations bills, including for the Department of Transportation.

There are a number of other energy-related House hearings this week:

• The House Transportation Committee is holding a hearing Wednesday titled, “Assuring the Safety of Domestic Energy Production: Lessons Learned from the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill.”

• A panel of the House Science Committee will examine “Conflicts and Unintended Consequences of Motor Fuel Standards” on Wednesday.

• A subcommittee of the House Natural Resources Committee will look into everglades restoration Thursday.

• Another Natural Resources Committee panel will hold a hearing Friday called, “Jobs at Risk: Waste and Mismanagement by the Obama Administration in Rewriting the Stream Buffer Zone Rule.”

Outside Washington, Republican presidential hopeful Jon Huntsman will deliver an energy speech Tuesday at the University of New Hampshire.
