Washington, D.C. - During remarks on the ongoing war in Israel, President Biden failed to mention Iran or a commitment to enforce their oil sanctions. Last year, Iran profited as they exported massive amounts of oil while the Biden Administration adopted a policy of lax enforcement.
“Energy security is national security and, if Joe Biden is serious about helping Israel, he’ll do all he can to cut off Iran’s money. The fact that Iran is making billions from their illegal oil operations while President Biden works to slow American energy production is an action that goes against his words. The solution is clear: Enforce Iran’s oil sanctions and unleash American energy to support our allies and our families.”

After the attacks unfolded today, an advisor to Iran’s supreme leader expressed support for the terrorist onslaught and the Israeli Prime Minister declared “we are at war.” At the same time, relaxed enforcement from the Biden Administration on Iranian oil sanctions have allowed Iran to profit off of oil exports at ever increasing levels.

Albuquerque – In a memo uncovered today, the White House is prohibiting senior Biden officials from traveling to energy conferences that focus on oil and natural gas. The policy, in place since late 2021, would prohibit Biden administration officials from traveling to New Mexico to discuss an industry that provides billions of dollars to the state. New Mexico is the second largest producer of oil in the country and hosts a number of critical discussions about the industry, all of which the Biden administration would be prohibited from attending.

Washington, D.C. - In an internal memo obtained by Fox News, the White House National Security Council is prohibiting senior members of the Biden Administration from traveling to energy conferences that promote coal, oil or natural gas. According to reports, the White House demands were in place since November 2021 with updates to the policy provided as recently as last month. During this time, senior administration officials have utilized traditional fuels to travel on hundreds of trips.
Daniel Turner, Founder and Executive Director for Power The Future released the following statement in response to the White House demands:
“We need no further evidence that the Biden Administration has declared war on American Energy then this egregious memo which treats the fossil fuel industry like an enemy. While this administration pursues accords with Iran and begs Venezuela for oil, the industry which powers our entire economy is treated like a pariah.”

Washington, D.C. - As a possible government shutdown looms, the Interior Department took the opportunity today to announce their plans to “phase down” oil and gas leasing in the Gulf of Mexico. President Biden’s administration proudly declared the new 5-year plan is the “fewest oil and gas lease sales in history” that would allow them to expand controversial offshore wind developments.
“Joe Biden can continue to blame foreign powers for the price of gas all he wants, but he hasn’t appointed Putin or the Saudi Prince to a cabinet position…yet,” said Daniel Turner, Founder and Executive Director for Power The Future. “Our families are suffering under terrible prices brought on by Biden’s energy policies and all his administration can do is brag about how much they’re hurting American energy production.”

Washington, D.C. - House Oversight Leaders sent a letter to Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm today demanding answers into her failed electric vehicle showcase. In June, Granholm embarked on a four-day EV journey to showcase the Biden Administration's green policies. The result was a failed trip that required fossil fuels as a bail out when a government-funded staffer used a gasoline-powered vehicle to block a family from charging their own EV.

Washington, D.C. - As New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham (D-NM) faces widespread backlash over her controversial public health order banning guns, there is concern that politicians will use climate as the next excuse for the next emergency declaration. Other leaders in the state are already calling for the declaration of a climate emergency, something the Biden Administration was caught discussing well over a year ago. Just last month, President Biden faced calls to declare a climate emergency and responded that he had already “practically” done so.
