Sen. Chuck Schumber’s attempt to predict higher energy prices in Wyoming would be a result of Republican tax cut efforts in Congress didn’t go over well with Wyoming U.S. Sen. John Barrasso.
When Barrasso heard the claims of the Senate Minority Leader, he had his say.
“Know why he’s in the minority, and we’re in the majority?” Barrasso said with a raised voice, referring to the November election that swung the Senate. “It’s because of energy.
“Because Joe Biden, former president, told the EPA, the Environmental Protection Agency, to prioritize the climate over energy that’s affordable, available and reliable.”
“And they tried to shove electric vehicles down the throats of every man, woman and child in America,” Barrasso added. “That’s why they’re in the minority and we’re in the majority. People want affordable energy.”
