I was shocked to learn that New Mexico does not have a law protecting consumers from price gouging,
It is important to have more production, ... the ideal price is between $20 and $25 -- that is good for producer countries and consumer countries.
The strategic petroleum reserve is used for national supply emergencies for a really rainy day. This is a price problem. We don't want to manipulate energy markets.
This is a political campaign, ... I am the energy secretary for the Clinton-Gore administration. I want to fix the problem and I want to fix it with you. Oil industry profits are up. American people have questions about the high price of oil.
This is a price problem, ... We don't want to manipulate energy markets.
This is unacceptable, and frankly, lends credibility to accusations of price gouging, ... Nobody should profit from tragedy.
