Washington, D.C. - The recent decision by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) to increase oil production by over 400,000 barrels per day is a blatant attempt to manipulate the market against American energy workers. The actions of the foreign oil regime underscore exactly why the United States should never depend on other nations for something so critical as energy.
”This move by OPEC is proof they fear President Trump’s American energy dominance agenda,” said Daniel Turner, Founder and Executive Director for Power The Future. “Having grown accustomed to capitulation and weakness, OPEC has a clear goal: manipulate the markets financially to weaken American producers, making domestic drilling unprofitable, and keep us dependent on them. Americans are lucky we once again have a leader in the White House who will fight for us on the world stage.”
Leading up to the midterm election in 2022, gasoline prices were at a record high when the Biden Administration secretly begged OPEC to delayproduction cuts by a month. The move was designed to allow OPEC to raise the cost of oil further, but only after the midterm elections so Biden’s party wouldn’t pay a political price.
