“My Democrat colleague across the aisle pointed out exactly what I was saying, that the entire reason why President Biden released our very precious oil--that the American people paid for with their hard-earned tax dollars for our emergency reserves--the reason why it was released was to reduce gas prices before an election. Our Democrat colleague completely admits that. He then goes on to blame the war in Ukraine for the reason that we have a low supply. Talk about serious. Let's talk about the most unserious decisions: that the Senate would not take up this bill to protect the American Strategic Petroleum Reserves; that the Senate would not take up this bill and pass my amendment to stop any President, Democrat or Republican, from selling oil out of our SPR for political reasons; and to imagine that President Biden would say that he would not consider this bill. President Biden is telling America that he doesn't care about our emergency supply or our national security. President Biden gives a serious, clear message to the American people that he will destroy the fossil fuel energy industry and that that will hurt every single American. There are no politics that can play with that. Mr. Chair, I urge my colleagues to pass my amendment and H.R. 21.”
