Band-Aid "Solutions" Designed to Help Poll Numbers, Not Families

Washington, D.C. – For the third time in less than six months, President Biden is tapping America's Strategic Oil Reserve to cover for his failed energy policies. The President is now aiming to shatter his own record for the largest drain on the reserve by releasing 180 million barrels of emergency supply, one third of the 550 million barrels available. This latest action comes during an election year and after President Biden issued numerous executive orders surrendering American energy independence.

"This is the third time Joe Biden has tried to put this band-aid over his self-inflected bullet wound to our economy," said Daniel Turner, Founder and Executive Director for Power The Future. "High gas prices are a direct result of the Biden Administration, and the only reason he cares about struggling families now is because he is worried about November. This latest drain on the reserve has nothing to do with helping America's families and everything to do with helping the President's abysmal approval rate. It's simple: If Joe Biden really wanted to solve this problem, he would stop the political ploys and start unleashing American energy production."
