A spokesperson for a petroleum association says the Biden administration has worked 'overtime on restricting American natural gas and oil production'
The Biden administration published its annual U.S. Energy and Employment Report (USEER) Tuesday, showing large fossil fuel industry job losses. Onshore and offshore petroleum companies shed 31,593 jobs, a 6.4% decline, the coal industry lost 7,125 jobs, down 11.8% year-over-year, and fossil fuel extraction jobs declined by 12%.
The fuels sector category was the only category that saw overall declines, according to the USEER.
The Biden administration has pursued an aggressive climate agenda since taking office, canceling the Keystone XL pipeline, limiting oil and gas lease sales on public lands and pushing environmental regulations impacting fossil fuel project development.
Democrats won’t tell you this. They would rather have blackouts than use fossil fuels to cool your home.
We have opportunities now to transfer to clean energy in a way that grows thousands of jobs. We just had a recent report that is showing that all of the energy and the employment stats from last year. Clean energy is winning. Fossil fuels losing jobs.

Yay President Biden!
Thank you for converting to green energy. A few blackouts and price increases on fuel and everything that needs fuel to function (Generally everything) is a small price to pay to go green.
No worries, we can raise the income limit on food stamps and start giving those out if you are broke enough after what has been done.
In a couple of weeks, President Joe Biden plans a pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia with two main aims: warm up ties between the oil-rich kingdom and an oil-distressed United States, and help pave the way for an expected Saudi recognition of Israel.

I wonder what they'd say when they found out how much oil it takes to
The plan has so far depleted the nation's emergency crude oil stockpiles 67 million barrels to 497.9 million barrels as of June 24, according to the Energy Information Administration's latest data released today—the lowest level since 1986.
With more than 100 million barrels yet to be released under the existing plan, the nation's stockpiles would be less than 397 million barrels. On June 14, the Department of Energy announced that it would sell 45 million barrels of oil out of the SPR, with deliveries expected to take place between August 16 and September 30.
Releasing even more come October could send the SPR to levels not seen—ever.

Meanwhile, Biden asks countries like Iran and Venezuela for oil.
Will be interesting to see what comes of his visit to Saudi Arabia... imagine if SA takes this as an opportunity to globally embarrass Biden (not that it would be a first for this administration...):

Every single idiot that voted for this train wreck because of mean tweets, I hope you are thrilled, he told us he was going to do this.
Keep in mind the fight with China is coming sooner rather than later and we will be screwed because you soft as cup cake morons couldn't look beyond orange man bad, and actually look at what biden said he was going to do, because they have done it.
