ENDING STRATEGIC PETROLEUM RESERVE SALES TO CHINA
|
|
This week, I voted to end oil sales from our Strategic Petroleum Reserve to China. From buying up American farmland to stonewalling investigations into the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic, China cannot be trusted.
We should never sell our oil or our farmland to the Chinese Communist Party.

COMBATING THE OPIOID EPIDEMIC IN RURAL AMERICA
Between July of 2021 and June of 2022, more than 107,000 Americans tragically died from a drug overdose, and from 1999 to 2015, overdose deaths increased by 325% in rural counties.
That’s why Senator Chuck Grassley and I introduced our Rural Opioid Abuse Prevention Act, which is now law, to tackle the opioid epidemic head-on at the local level.
