Bill Analysis

Bill Summary: HR 21 - Strategic Production Response Act

The Strategic Production Response Act (HR 21) aims to enhance the United States’ energy security by establishing a framework for the federal government to respond to significant disruptions in oil supply. The bill mandates the Secretary of Energy to develop a comprehensive strategy that includes the identification of critical energy supply chains and the establishment of a strategic reserve of crude oil to mitigate the impacts of supply shortages.

Key Provisions:

  1. Strategic Reserve Creation: The bill authorizes the Secretary of Energy to create a strategic reserve of crude oil, which can be utilized during supply disruptions caused by natural disasters, geopolitical events, or other emergencies.
  2. Assessment and Reporting: The Secretary is required to conduct regular assessments of the U.S. oil supply chain and report findings to Congress, ensuring transparency and accountability in energy management.
  3. Collaboration with States: The Act encourages collaboration with state governments to enhance local energy resilience and preparedness.

Funding and Authorities: The bill does not specify a funding mechanism; however, it grants the Secretary of Energy the authority to allocate resources necessary for the establishment and maintenance of the strategic reserve. This may involve the use of existing funds within the Department of Energy’s budget.

Agencies Affected: The primary agency impacted by this legislation is the U.S. Department of Energy, particularly its Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management. Additionally, state energy offices may be involved in collaborative efforts.

Beneficiaries: The Act is designed to benefit American consumers and businesses by stabilizing oil supply and prices during crises. It also aims to enhance national security by reducing reliance on foreign oil sources.

Key Timelines: Following its introduction, HR 21 was received in the Senate, read twice, and referred to the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources for further consideration. The timeline for subsequent actions will depend on the committee’s review and any potential amendments or debates in the Senate.
