The Greens and Democrats are certainly doing something about our undeveloped domestic oil supply. They are putting it all off limits.
The US is an amazing piece of real estate. We actually have more resources than places two and three times our size. The only reason we have shortages is that we refuse to actually create our own supply. Its like growing your own vegetables but refusing to eat and then calling yourself starved. Cuba, Mexico and Canada all will be drilling oil which runs under US soil or coastlines and we are letting them take it from us without a fight or even a protest. As dumb as we are as a country, we deserve high oil prices and all the extortion we suffer.
