Democrats in the House of Representatives blocked Republican efforts to move ahead with consideration of the American Energy Independence from Russia Act on Thursday that would have reopened U.S. energy projects to combat the rising cost of fuel caused by the Biden administration's anti-fossil fuel agenda.
218 Democrats voted against considering the proposal offered on the House floor by Rep. Michelle Fischbach (R-MN), defeating the House GOP's plan for the fourth time and stopping the Republicans' plan to to bring relief to Americans who saw gas prices hit their all-time average high in March.
The legislation offered by Republicans would have green-lit the Keystone XL pipeline project, stripped restrictions on liquified natural gas exports, jumpstarted oil and gas leases on federal lands and waters, protected energy development from further attacks by President Biden, and required plans to replenish oil drawn from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve.
Speaking on the House floor Thursday, House Republicans made the case for the legislation initially drafted by Reps. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA) and Bruce Westerman (R-AR).

DemoRats just taking care of the little people....Thanks you Fing Rat.
We need this well advertised to what they are doing.
Pretty soon we will all have to buy a tent and move to SF.
At least the million barrels a day from the SPR will help. Bwahahahahahaha! I actually typed that with a straight face. Then couldn’t contain it any longer.
The Republicans should win on this issue alone, explaining to,the nation that l8berals want to e danger our nation by making us dependent o. Rogue nations for fuel when we have more than enough to be energy independent and to reduce prices back to what they were under president Trump before the left took over and destroy3d al, the progress Trump made
Woops posted too soon,
But loo, for,Republicans to somehow screw up a gift like the fscft they Biden and Biden alone is responsible for massive gas prices and rising food costs.
Republicans should be screaming g about tha fsct that Biden destroyed our independence and made us vulnerable to,rogue nations, but al. They do really is go on fox and meekly point out the facts but carefully enough so,that the rats won’t hate them too much for exposing them
the LEFT will hurt you to get what they want
Elections are right around the corner and the dumb a**es who voted for Biden......know damn well that his policies are hurting their pocketbooks.
Continued direct assault on the middle class . . . ain’t no doubt about it . . .
Sad to say, we know some and they’re still 100% branDUHn supporters because “orange man bad”. We ran into one a couple weeks ago and she actually said, with regards to gas prices, “That putin is really stickin’ it to us huh?” We were speechless. Not worth the effort to correct that “commie-ment”.
Dead voters don’t have pocketbooks.
People are really stupid....and these are voters.
I guess the only analogy that’s apropos would be “A wife goes out and has sex with with every guy except to her loyal and compliant husband”.
It’ll take like... Forever, to repair the damage the democrats and their republican assistants have done.
The climate change agenda of the democrats, is what our enemies need to help them destroy the U.S.
It’s not about global-warming or climate change; it’s about control of a country which won’t be a major player in the world stage, if democrats have their way. And the democrats’ way is what the enemies of America subscribe to. In fact, the democrats are the enemy within, and no doubt, our enemies were able to plant their agenda into the democrats easily controlled puny brains.
Save it for November.
Democrats don’t have enough adversity in their lives, got to keep ginning up some more.
The road to peace and prosperity is SO easy to get on, but it means giving up large parts of their convictions and dogma.
Hoaxes begin to take on a life of their own after they have gone for long enough. “Green energy” shall never be achieved the way they are going about it, as they have long since closed off any bridge between the picture today and what they claim is for the “betterment” of mankind.
The Republicans should win on this issue alone
*************
Winning is not a concept that Republicans embrace.
Biden administration’s anti-fossil fuel agenda.
The agenda doesn’t look like as much to do with anti-fossil as much as it does with gaining more power for control over the people comply or die they hold that cards now.
The democrats only have 8 months to gain and keep total control or the party is dead it’s going to get much harder in the 8 months and many bad changes they have a running record of their ways.
Who got elected by hook or crook
True, they can snatch away a win quicker than anyone I know.
