How to deflate OPEC

The Daily Caller:

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis will release his energy policy agenda Wednesday to “achieve $2 gas” and reduce energy costs if president, according to a copy of the plan obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

DeSantis’ six-part “Freedom To Fuel” plan will be the fourth policy rollout of his presidential campaign, followed by his agenda for immigration, the military and the economy. The governor plans to “Restore American Energy Dominance,” “Save the American Automobile,” “Elevate Evidence Over Ideology,” “Reform Environmental Permitting and End Green Lawfare,” “Jump-Start Critical Mineral and Federal Land Development” and “Build the Most Efficient, Affordable, and Reliable Energy Grid in the World,” according to the proposal.

“As President, I will be laser-focused on reducing gas prices and energy costs,” DeSantis said in a statement. “We will unleash American energy dominance as a way to stop inflation and achieve $2 gas in 2025. We need a pro-America energy policy that puts Midland over Moscow, the Marcellus over the Mullahs, and the Bakken over Beijing. We will reverse American decline by reversing Biden’s America last energy agenda, eliminating reliance on hostile nations for energy, and putting the economic interests of Americans before the radical left’s ideological agenda.”

DeSantis will pledge to “crush inflation” through oil and gas production by advancing pipelines and other infrastructure, according to the proposal. The governor plans on strengthening American energy exports, refilling the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and bolster the nuclear energy industry.

The governor’s agenda would also repeal several of President Joe Biden’s climate provisions, like the Clean Power Plan, “waters of the United States” rule, electric vehicle (EV) mandates, targeting of gas stoves and other appliances and any other rules that enable energy dependence on China, according to the proposal.
