So why are they doing it? The only explanation is that it must be fundraising season again.But it's disappointing no matter what the reasoning. In offering this bill, what they're telling the American people is that they're not interested in strengthening our country's national security through domestic energy security. They're not interested in helping pay down the national debt through the hundreds of billions of dollars that oil production from ANWR is estimated to generate in federal revenue. And they aren't interested in the tens of thousands of jobs oil production from ANWR would create. ### Print Email Tweet Next Article Previous Article | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
