WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, in a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing, Senator Rick Scott questioned Department of Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm on the Biden administration’s failed energy policies and received a major commitment: the United States will not import oil from genocidal regimes in Iran and Venezuela. Since Joe Biden took office, Senator Scott has warned about the dangers of working with evil regimes like those in Venezuela, Iran, Cuba and China.
