Say No to Sham Energy Deal with Real Victory in Sight

Quote:
The so-called Gang of 10 (now 20) deal and similar energy bills being floated by Democrats on the House side are designed to give liberal members of Congress cover on the most explosive issue of the election season.

The basic deal they pretend to offer is if you give us higher taxes on energy production, we’ll give you more access to offshore oil and gas. But the reality is these deals don’t offer more access to offshore oil and gas at all; they offer less, indeed substantially less than will be available under current law when the calendar turns from September to October. That’s when the current, temporary offshore ban expires. So the liberals offer higher taxes in exchange for new permanent restrictions on access. Some deal. Any member of Congress who wants more domestic production and lower prices at the pump should say no and instead run out the clock on the current ban.
Run Out The Clock!
