Energy Secretary: Americans Should Expect To Pay More For Gas, Heat

Department of Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm appeared on CNN’s “State of the Union” with Dana Bash Sunday to address the rising cost of energy in America.

“It will be more expensive this year than last year,” Granholm remarked in regard to heating costs. “We are in a slightly more beneficial position, certainly relative to Europe because … they’re going to pay five times higher. We have the same problem in fuels that the supply chains have. The oil and gas companies are not flipping the switch as quickly as the demand requires.”

When asked about the national average of gasoline reaching $3.42/gallon, Granholm stated, “Every president is frustrated because they can’t control the price of gasoline. OPEC is unfortunately controlling the agenda in regards to oil prices. OPEC is a cartel and it controls over 50% of the supply of gasoline.”

  1. Maybe if biden didn’t shut down the pipeline it wouldn’t be going up. They act like they don’t control gas prices, they do.

  2. We don’t “expect” to but it looks like we will “have” to. This country is brimming with energy, but thanks to Biden, we have to buy it from our enemies. And they love to soak us real good.

  3. Thank Joe Biden for the energy price increases. At least with “mean tweeting” Trump we were energy independent. How much longer do we have to put up with this charade?

  4. Democrats again.

    With their LIES.

    We EXPORTED oil and gasoline was $2.30 a gallon when Republicans were in charge.
    Now, it’s democrats and gasoline is IMPORTED again, gasoline is $3.50 to $5.00 a gallon and BIDEN keeps looking for new production lines to be cut/shut down.
    Democrats. To heel with American jobs, to hell with American families, and to hell with “We, the people”.
    But, let’s make sure give illegal immigrants enough money to make things “right” with them….
    Being a Democrat should be a special tax bracket. A very high one.

    1. Dont forget the state and local revenue generators (taxes) attached to each gallon of gasoline. Take that off and many would be surprised. Talk firm with OPEC like the prior Prez…..oh never mind, Dems dont “git it” at all. Lather rinse repeat when it comes to politics and gray beards. They dont know any better, and the youngs in the Capital worth a ship stay quiet.

  5. If the Brandon administration had allowed us to keep our energy independence… she wouldn’t be making these statements and the economy would not have shifted to inflation-overdrive!
