Arrington Leads Legislation to Protect American Energy Exports & Global Dominance
Statement
Issues: Oil and Gas
Today, Rep. Jodey C. Arrington (TX-19), with twenty-two of his colleagues, introduced the Continuing Robust and Uninhibited Drilling and Exporting (CRUDE) Act of 2021 to restrict President Biden's ability to impose an export ban on crude oil without first proving a credible national security risk.
"The Biden Administration's rhetoric surrounding an oil export ban is completely misguided and will result in higher energy costs for American consumers, hurt our domestic producers, and weaken our energy independence. I am proud to introduce the CRUDE Act to prevent the Biden Administration from weaponizing trade policies to destroy the oil and gas industry and America's global energy dominance." - Congressman Jodey C. Arrington
