President Joe Biden said Wednesday that he has not implemented policies to halt domestic oil production; however, the Biden administration has enacted policies that are hampering the nation’s energy output.
“Biden’s green policies have created a hostile environment for investment in oil and gas, which has hurt production,” Phil Flynn, an energy market analyst with the PRICE Futures Group, told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
“If the president wants to debunk some myths, let’s start with the fact that he’s leased fewer acres of federal and offshore land than any other president since the end of WWII,” Republican Rep. Bruce Westerman of Arkansas told the DCNF.
President Joe Biden said Wednesday that he has not stopped or stalled oil production; despite this, the Biden administration has implemented policies that are derailing domestic fossil fuel output.
Biden asserted that he wanted to “debunk some myths” about his energy policies and claimed that his administration has done the “opposite” of discouraging oil production during a speech. However, the Biden administration has instituted a regulatory crackdown on producers and discouraged investment in the industry while blaming oil and gas companies for the resulting shortages and price hikes......

The Environmental Protection Agency decided in April to rescind exemptions that would have allowed over 30 refiners to avoid blending “renewable” biofuels into gasoline and diesel, increasing the “burden” on refineries by hiking costs and decreasing output, according to an agency docket.

Do you mean the Strategic Midterm Reserve?
Sorry but Biden is innocent of causing tight domestic oil supply. He has lately done the opposite in a most effective manner by reducing domestic demand for the product by ushering in the front end of a recession while simultaneously driving up oil prices. Stagflation, now, that’s what the heavyweight economic theoreticians in the Democrat Party who brought us the counterintuitive spendfest Inflation Reduction Act would call a plan!

The real problem is investment has fallen off a cliff. Prices to remain high for quite awhile.
