Tim Ryan: “To end our addiction to oil by 2025, if we get around to it, and it will only be in half. And there is not the urgency…”

“To end our addiction to oil by 2025, if we get around to it, and it will only be in half. And there is not the urgency that I think our constituents are feeling right now. Let us do something. You have the ability as President, especially after 9/11. He could have marshaled our country and put us in another direction to say we want to reduce our dependency on foreign oil, we want to reduce the cost of gas, and we want to move in another direction. He could have done that because we were all ready to do whatever he wanted us to do. We would have walked to work. We would have rode bikes. We would have done whatever the President asked us to do. But he did not challenge us to do anything.”
