House Oversight Chair James Comer invited Department of Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm to testify at a hearing looking at the administration's actions on various energy issues.
Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm speaks during the daily briefing at the White House in Washington, Jan. 23, 2023.
The Biden administration’s pause on LNG exports, announced in January, was met with pushback from critics calling it unnecessary and urging President Biden to end the pause.’s analyses used to decide who gets our LNG “adequately” accounts for “energy costs, America’s energy security, and our environment.”
Republicans also hit Mr. Biden for selling more than 40% of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve in 2022 to help combat the rising gas prices triggered in part by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. However, Ms.announced earlier this month that the stockpiles in the reserve at year-end will be at or exceeding the levels it was before the sale.
Ms. Granholm’s four-day electric vehicle road trip in September was heavily criticized after it was revealed that staff from the department blocked off charging stations so she wouldn’t have to wait, prompting a call to the local police after a family was frustrated. The goal was to draw attention to green energy and clean cars, but it fell short and led to a probe from the oversight committee into the trip.
