President Biden is set to order the release of as much as 1 million barrels of oil a day from the nation’s strategic oil reserves in an attempt to gain some control over spiking energy prices in the U.S.
The announcement could arrive as soon as Thursday, when Biden is planning to deliver remarks on his administration’s plan to combat rising gas prices, according to the Associated Press.
It is unclear how long the daily release would last, but the wire service also reports the measure could last a few months.
Fuel prices, which were already on the rise prior to Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, have hit a four-decade high causing Biden’s approval rating to take a further dive as Americans feel the issue in their wallets.
This would mark the third time this administration has announced a release of millions of barrels from the strategic reserve. According to the Energy Department, which manages the emergency supply, more than 568 million barrels were held in the reserve of last week.

The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.
