Back to Promise

Still no report

Ruling: Promise Broken

The last time we checked on President Obama's campaign pledge to provide an annual report on the "state of our energy future," a White House spokeswoman told us that the National Energy Security Strategy Report was under review. We thus rated the promise In the Works.

That was several months ago, so we wanted to see how things have been unfolding since then.

We searched for the report via the White House website, Google, and Lexis Nexis, and found nothing. We also checked with an energy policy expert, who told us that he's not aware of such a report. Finally, we asked a press representative from the Senate Energy Committee to help us out, but he was not able to find anything either. Neither the White House nor the Department of Energy responded to our requests for a comment.

We're willing to change the ruling in the future, but for now, this is a Promise Broken.

Promise Broken
Obama promised, but didn't deliver.
