Congressional lawmakers blasted the United States's continued reliance on foreign energy after OPEC+ agreed to slash oil production by more than two million barrels a day.
"This is the danger of relying on our adversaries for energy," said Rep. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla. "Americans will feel the effects of this decision when they see prices increase at the pump."
"President Biden begged overseas dictators to increase oil production, and they rejected him," said Sen. John Barrasso of Wyoming, the top Republican on the Senate Energy Committee. "Now Democrats are scrambling to deal with an energy crisis their extreme policies helped create." "This OPEC+ announcement should serve as a reminder to all of us that true American energy independence comes from clean energy," said Senate Environment Committee Chairman Tom Carper, D-Del.
Not every Democrat called for an end to fossil fuels. Senate Energy Committee Chairman Joe Manchin said the OPEC+ decision was another reason to boost domestic production.
