Sen. Cruz said, “The Biden administration continues their illogical attack on U.S. energy production. The latest announcement that the administration will only hold three new lease sales in the Gulf of Mexico will simply force consumers to use foreign sources, which produce more methane and take more energy to transport. America produces the cleanest oil and gas, and if President Biden is really concerned about greenhouse gas emissions, he should be encouraging more domestic American energy production. Instead, his radical policies are going to raise gasoline prices, hurt families and businesses, and weaken American energy security by emboldening Russia and Iran.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T00:37:48Z |
