[Issue] Energy policy [Question] What changes would you make to federal energy policy? [Position] 
ANSWER OPTION First and foremost, we should stop subsidizing big oil. As we transition to more renewable solutions, nuclear and natural gas, as well as some additional oil drilling and clean coal, should be on the negotiating table. This future should involve a combination of innovative energy technologies, an emphasis on energy efficiencies and an expansion of domestic energy production, without abandoning the call to be responsible stewards of our state's precious lakes, rivers and other natural resources. CANDIDATE'S POSITION Graves said the following in response to an MPR News inquiry: "I see our energy crises not as a problem, but an opportunity to create new technologies, products and, above all, new jobs. It's an opportunity to reduce our dependency on foreign oil and thus to bolster our national security, and an opportunity to fashion our own energy future."
