House Republicans just ensured that the SPR is reserved for EMERGENCIES ONLY. Promises made. Promises kept.
@RepBentz Biden sold oil from the SPR while prices were high, and replaced it when prices were low, there by making a huge profit for the country! The Republicans voted AGAINST a bill to stop price gouging from oil companies, causing everyone to pay more. Those a facts!
@RepBentz @SpeakerMcCarthy Now let's get back to #GinniThomas shall we? #January6thInsurrection
@RepBentz @SpeakerMcCarthy When are Republicans going to fix the inflation thing? Next week?
@RepBentz It is a global market and POTUS made the right choice. He sold the oil for $96 and restocked it at a lower price netting $4B and also lowered gas prices. The gop hates that POTUS had another win. False promises made. Asinine bills passed. 🤡#WeakerSpeaker markets.businessinsider.com/news/commoditi…
@RepBentz @SpeakerMcCarthy So you’re saying the legislation will be passed in the Senate and signed into law? Or are you saying that following in the footsteps of Pelosi your passing legislation that has no chance of becoming law? Dude - you have just become Pelosi 2.0
@RepBentz There is no point in issuing new leases until the industry starts drilling on the ones they already have. Perhaps you should introduce a bill which would have those leases expire if they don’t start drilling within a certain time frame.
@RepBentz We are embarrassed to have C Bentz as our Congressman. The guy doesn't have one thought of his own. Just goes along with whatever extemists are bellowing.
@RepBentz Using it during the last emergency not only worked it was #profitable. Thanks for taking a page from the President’s playbook.
@RepBentz @SpeakerMcCarthy So...High inflation is NOT an emergency according to Repubs.
