The White House is tapping our emergency oil reserves – again – for the 3rd time in 6 months. The US consumes approx. 20 mil. barrels per day. This alleged 180 mil. barrels is comparable to less than 2 days of global demand This release ends right before the midterm elections. — PolitiTweet.org

Schoolchildren running lemonade stands across America have better backfill and economic strategies than we are seeing out the energy team in the Biden Administration. 🧵Tapping the SPR is not for self-imposed crises resulting from stupid energy policies. https://t.co/MXiqC2zPk1 — PolitiTweet.org

This package of legislation helps to correct the failed energy policies that have caused a surge in gasoline and electricity bills across our country and return to a path of American energy dominance. (2/2) — PolitiTweet.org

Does America want to produce our own affordable energy and create jobs here, or do we want to continue to buy expensive energy and fund authoritarian regimes like Putin? We choose America every time. ⬇️Our bills that would lower energy prices (1/2) https://t.co/Sik2vKvT5y — PolitiTweet.org

We have strong concerns that this could be an attempt to politically direct funding rather than simply getting the dollars to those most impacted and those with the greatest need. More here on the HUD Funding: https://t.co/qItAmsa9Wc https://t.co/b9xNKy32kp — PolitiTweet.org

There needs to be meaningful reforms to the flood insurance program that will keep rates down for policyholders in Louisiana, incentivize better flood protection, and give families credit on their policies for their community’s investment in mitigation. — PolitiTweet.org

Gas prices impact everyone. The House Natural Resources Committee should be addressing the Biden Administration’s flawed energy policies that have put us in this position. Saying no to everything is not an energy strategy. The Biden Admin is responsible for the price hike. https://t.co/iAliZN44bi — PolitiTweet.org

If we don't need a mask to dine in a restaurant, go to a concert, ride a school bus or attend the Super Bowl, then a mask mandate is no longer needed for airlines. It's time for the Biden Administration to end the mask mandate and implement reasonable policies. — PolitiTweet.org

ICYMI - we are asking HUD Secretary Fudge why some south Louisiana communities did not receive hurricane or flood recovery funding this week. https://t.co/o1oU5hmOX3 — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves
The United States is the number one LNG producer in the world and Louisiana is the top exporting state. The LNG permit approvals give the United States more flexibility to supplant Russian natural gas and funding for Putin’s war. https://t.co/z7UW0CmmOO — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves
It’s good to see that the pressure put on the Biden Administration is working, but the only real, long-term solution moving forward is to permit new LNG terminal construction & utilize domestic energy production so we can provide our allies with reliable and secure energy. (4/4) — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves
Russia invaded Ukraine a month ago today and we’ve been pushing the Biden Administration to help lessen Europe’s reliance on Russian energy while simultaneously ramping up domestic energy production to fill the void. (3/4) — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves
But – It’s important to note these permits really just provide flexibility rather than increased export capability. Until they clear the backlogged export terminal permits and allow new LNG facility construction, our ability to replace dirtier Russian gas is constrained. (2/4) — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves
Should President Biden and European leaders reach a deal this week to export more U.S. LNG to Europe to supplant Russian natural gas, it’s another step in the right direction and follows the decision to approve two LNG permits last week. (1/4) — PolitiTweet.org

ICYMI, this week Louisiana received $1.7 billion for hurricane and flood recovery funding. But, the State is still required to complete a spending “action plan” that historically takes several months to complete and approve before disaster victims can even apply for assistance. https://t.co/9LOZlVKwrc — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves
The last thing we need is some opaque, discriminatory process that further delays and distorts recovery funding to our impacted families. (4/4) https://t.co/g2TmfkSPBd — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves
HUD has introduced new criteria that have not been approved by Congress. We have strong concerns that this could be an attempt to politically direct funding rather than simply getting the dollars to those most impacted and those with the greatest need. (3/4) — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves
We sent the letter to HUD Secretary Fudge urging that Lafourche, Terrebonne, Jefferson, St. Charles, St. John and other parishes receive recovery funding directly. Under the current allocation, only the City of Baton Rouge will receive 2021 disaster funds directly. (2/4) — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves
🚨We have concerns about new HUD funding criteria for victims of hurricane and flood disasters that could redirect aid to areas and individuals with less damage.🚨 The new criteria came after Louisiana received $1.7 billion yesterday in hurricane & flood recovery funding.

Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves
From start to finish of this recovery process, HUD has got to act with the same sense of urgency that disaster victims feel after a storm when their lives are turned upside down. (5/5) — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves
We asked Secretary Fudge on January 6, 2022 – three months after passing the law – for an update on when to expect the 2021 disaster allocations would be published. (4/5) https://t.co/GJX0FX7qIS — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves
States have to stand up programs to administer these block grants and disaster victims must go through the arduous process of applying for funds. From appropriation to checks in hand, this process can take from 9 months to over a year. (3/5) — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves
Publishing the allocations for the remaining $3 billion is only the first step. The State is still required to complete a spending “action plan” that historically takes several months to complete and approve before disaster victims can even apply for assistance. (2/5) — PolitiTweet.org
Rep. Garret Graves @RepGarretGraves
HUD later agreed today the $450 million in CDBG funds specifically for Laura and Delta impacted communities will be in addition to the $1.3 billion – making today’s announced Louisiana total $1.7 billion. It’s good news, but we now face a bureaucratic nightmare. (1/5) — PolitiTweet.org
