UNDER OATH: Are You Telling Me That These Policies Had No Effect On Our Energy Supply?

Senator Josh Hawley with Energy Sec Granholm…

“From January to August, the price of gasoline was up over 30 percent in my state alone. It has been a continuous, continuous upward tick since then”, Hawley said during the hearing, which fell on the tenth consecutive day of the national gas price average climbing.

“And here’s what your president did when he first came to office,” the senator continued.
“He immediately reentered the Paris Climate Accord. He canceled the Keystone Pipeline. He halted leasing programs in ANWR. He issued a 60-day halt on all new oil and gas leases and drilling permits on federal lands and waters. That’s nationwide. That accounts, by the way, for 25 percent of U.S. oil production,” Hawley explained.
“He directed federal agencies to eliminate all supports for fossil fuels. He imposed new regulations on oil and gas and methane emissions. Those were all just in the first few days. Are you telling me that had no effect on our energy supply?”

“I’m not interested in their opinion. I’m interested in the facts.”
