This week, the House considered H.R. 21, the Strategic Production Response Act. I am a proud cosponsor of this bill that limits the ability to tap into our petroleum reserve until the Department of Energy creates a plan to designate more federal land for oil and gas production.
The Biden Administration has sold out the American people with its reckless use of our oil reserves. Our reserves are meant to be used for our nation in times of emergency, not to be sold to enemy nations like China. I introduced and passed two amendments to the bill that will hold the Administration accountable for its actions.
Amendment #147, passed by the House, prohibits President Biden from selling portions of our Strategic Petroleum Reserve to China for political gain. Read my Amendment here, and watch my speech below.
Amendment #146, also passed by the House, forces President Biden to refill our Strategic Petroleum Reserve to the level it was on his first day in office. Read my Amendment here, and watch my speech below. |
I’m always happy to go on Tucker Carlson to talk about the issues facing my great state of Georgia. With the riots happening in Atlanta this week, I found it fitting to announce my plans to introduce legislation to declare Antifa a domestic terrorist organization. It is far past time to uncover who is funding the riots destroying American cities. |
