Jessica Roose | 5/24/2012

Today members of the U.S. House of Representatives met across the country to highlight America`s domestic energy resources. Congressman Rick Berg and House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy used that opportunity to speak with attendees of the Williston Basin Petroleum Conference.

They stressed the need for a successful energy policy that ensures stability in the market and allows regulation at the state level.

"We understand here fracking for oil is way different than fracking in the east coast and fracking in other areas. So we need to make sure that we`re doing the regulation level at the state level and we keep that," Berg said.

Well have more tonight on the evening report including reaction from Democratic U.S. Senate Candidate Heidi Heitkamp.
