Bentz says Biden policies. executive orders halting new oil, gas leases killing energy, industry
Invites Oregon oil company official to speak at GOP virtual forum
WASHINGTON (KTVZ) Rep. Cliff Bentz (R-Ontario) participated Friday in a House Natural Resources Committee Republican Virtual Forum focused on what participants called the impact of President Biden s energy- and industry-killing executive orders.
The forum was
not an official House Natural Resources Committee event because the Committee s Democrats have declined to hold a hearing on this important matter, the lawmaker said.
Bentz invited Trent Tyree, chief operating officer at Tyree Oil of Oregon, to testify at the forum and answer questions. Tyree Oil has operations across Oregon, including several in Congressman Bentz s district. According to Tyree, the company s operations have been significantly impacted due to the polices of the Biden Administration.
