His dismal approval rating is not a justifiable reason to continue to raid our nation’s oil reserves. The surest way to bring down energy prices is to unleash American energy production.” Background Information: On September 27, 2022, Barrasso wrote an op-ed in National Review on Biden’s political abuse of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:34:28Z |
