U.S. Senator John Barrasso (R-WY) recently spoke on the Senate floor about the need to unleash American energy to counter the Biden administration’s climate policies. Barrasso said winter storms have been covering the country from Colorado to Connecticut, and as temperatures drop, energy prices go up.

Barrasso said energy prices are dramatically higher now than when President Joe Biden took office.

Senator Barrasso also spoke about legislation he introduced this week to protect and prioritize America’s Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) and ban SPR sales to China. Barrasso said the House has already passed this legislation and the vote was completely bipartisan, as more than 100 Democrats voted for it in the House and there is no reason it shouldn’t be bipartisan in the Senate as well.
