Sen. Lankford: Biden’s green agenda ‘spiraling out of control’ due to inflation
May 27, 2022
Sen. James Lankford, R-Okla., told “The Faulkner Focus” on Thursday that the Biden administration’s green policies are “spiraling out of control.” Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm said President Biden is “obsessed” with bringing gas prices down, but the high costs are “an exclamation point on the fact that we need to move to clean energy.”
RECORD GAS PRICES FOR THIS LONG ‘UNPRECEDENTED’: AAA
JAMES LANKFORD: Here’s the simple fact of this. The price of gas went 50% up in the first year of the Biden presidency because what [Granholm] was articulating is exactly where they are. They want to try to push people to get to different energy sources by raising the price of oil and gas. But what they weren’t anticipating was how out of control this would really get. And they’ve created this spiral of inflation based on what happened with increasing energy prices and then that $2 trillion bill that they put in place last year. The two things combined have been catastrophic for Americans.
