ICYMI: Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) wrote the below opinion editorial published in The Hill, sounding the alarm on the increased prices in diesel and fuel and the devastating impact this will have on the American economy.
The Hill: Soaring diesel prices spells bad news for America
“Since Day One, the Biden-Harris administration has kissed the ring of the extremist Green New Deal movement. In return, America’s energy industry is collapsing before our very eyes. By canceling the Keystone XL pipeline, refusing to approve oil and gas leases, raising energy production royalties, and seeking oil from adversaries, American energy is under assault.
"Sadly, for American businesses, the job still needs to get done—which means higher prices for them and subsequently, higher prices for you. Economics 101 tells you that while many businesses attempt to eat increased costs, the reality is the increased burden will eventually fall on the consumer.”
