Congressman Gottheimer now says U.S. should "ramp up" oil production

High gas prices are a very unpopular thing. I guess some Democrats are looking at the polls and figuring that out. Many Republicans have been calling on the Biden Administration to remove regulatory barriers and increase domestic oil production to where it was during the Trump Administration. Yesterday, the Democratic Congressman who represents most of Sussex County joined the chorus of those who are saying domestic oil production needs to be "ramped up." Congressman Josh Gottheimer called it the "All of the above" Energy Plan. At a press conference behind a gas station on Route 4 in Saddle River the congressman said: "We must ban Russian Oil. We must take advantage of all of the resources in the U.S. and we must continue our goals in climate change." Specifically when it comes to domestic production Gottheimer said we must stop buying crude oil from Russia, Venezuela and Iran. Then get domestic production back to where it was in 2019.
