    Biden will tap oil reserve, hoping to push gasoline prices down. [Read free here]
    New York Times (Moderate Left) • Factual Grade 75% • 8 min read

    President Biden announced on Thursday that the United States would release up to 180 million barrels of oil [from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve]. [It is] the largest release since that emergency stockpile was established in the early 1970s. But the move will most likely have a modest impact because it cannot make up for all the oil, diesel and other fuels that Russia used to sell to the world but is no longer able to.
    ...
    Mr. Biden’s plan, to release one million barrels a day for 180 days, would represent roughly 5% of American demand and 1% of global demand. Russian oil exports are down about three million barrels a day. The U.S. benchmark oil price fell about 6% on Thursday.
    ...
    The American Petroleum Institute said Mr. Biden ought to encourage domestic oil production by reducing regulations. [The Biden administration] argues [oil companies] are not producing more energy to increase their profits. Energy experts said the release would pack more punch if other countries also sold oil from their stockpiles.
