House Democrats blocked a motion Wednesday that would have prevented President Joe Biden from selling oil drawn from the United States Strategic Petroleum Reserve to entities controlled by the Chinese Communist Party.to recommit H.R. 8294, the Transportation, Housing and Urban Development, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act. A motion to recommit is a procedural motion that allows a member of the House minority to change a bill before it goes to the House floor for a final vote.
The proposed motion would have prevented U.S. oil from being sold to entities “under the ownership, control, or influence of the Chinese Communist Party” or entities that would get the oil and then turn around and export it to China. Valadao’s motion comes just weeks after reports revealed that Biden sold nearly one million barrels of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to a CCP-owned gas company with financial ties to Hunter Biden.In April, Biden’s Department of Energy announced the nearly one million barrel sale to Unipec, which is the trading arm of Sinopec. Sinopec is wholly owned and operated by the Chinese Communist Party.
Unipec reportedly purchases oil across the globe and then apparently sells it through its Sinopec Marketing subsidiary.Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, reportedly has financial ties to the CCP-owned Sinopec. A private equity firm Hunter Biden cofounded reportedly purchased a nearly $2 billion stake in Sinopec Marketing in 2015.
“These reserves are meant to be used in emergencies only. They are not meant to be used when our leadership has failed us by unnecessarily restricting domestic energy production,” Valadao🚨 I just requested a vote on legislation that would stop the Biden administration from sending our Strategic Petroleum Reserves to China.
Holy Christ

GOPLeader Still Hiding Kevin? Perhaps you are Waiting for the Grand Jury subpoena.
GOPLeader McCarthy can't even pull off the short con. He's no idea how to go about the long con. He's afraid of everybody, all castrated like. UN-AMERICAN DIRTBAG PISHER!
DebbieB1230 Is Hunter Biden still an “Energy Consultant” or does the sale of his Art 🤣 cover cost of his blow? This deal has the stench of Hunter Biden all over it. Either way the Traitor in Chief is behind it. If he was trying to keep our “allies” from buying Russian oil it didn’t work
GOPLeader Kevin, in December of 2015, you voted for the budget reconciliation cobbled together by GOP controlled House and Senate which repealed the 40 year old ban on export of domestically produced oil, right? You made this all possible, and now you are whining about the result?
Destroyocrats! That's all they seem to be good for nowadays. They should start a demolition company. 5 STARS! Probably can't due to restrictive permits.
GOPLeader Wow
JovanHPulitzer We need a current list of all Democrats and Republicans along with their email, US mail address , phone numbers and whatever else and a daily list of what they have voted for or against. Then we the people can keep track of our representation and communicate with them.
GOPLeader But apparently to the GOP it’s totally OK for Trump hugest investors to be from China meanwhile all they do is say China owns Biden but yeah we all know China owns the GOP
mimi164688659 Tells ya who they are working for but we all knew that already
GOPLeader 😁
LMAO Scoop: GOP's oil reserve amnesia - Axios
GOPLeader
JovanHPulitzer Your Democrat Party at work! That oil is owned by “WE THE PEOPLE”!
GOPLeader Breitbart=Fascism 101 Greaseball Bannon change the 2 quarts of oil in your hair.
GOPLeader If all the Alaskan Oil wasn't exported we wouldn't have to touch our Strategic Oil Reserves. Pick the real problem not the one invented by Republicans. Because of Republicans Oil Companies are making record profits exporting Alaskan Oil. Allowing Oil Companies to gouge Americans.
GOPLeader Check how your congress person voted on this! With communist China and Biden or with the American people!
GOPLeader Keep it up Biden ... November will be here soon!
treason is Bidens reason!
beachkatie TheDemocrats and you want to know why I believe that you are Socialists. You support Socialist countries…..
Remember when Trumpsold oil to China from the strategic petroleum reserve in 2017? Good times…
Why do they hate America so much and why do we keep re-electing them.
Traitors!
Insane
Of course, gotta keep those kickbacks coming
All corrupt and compromised
Impeach today
Why?
Tells you all you need to know. Won't be long our reserves will be empty.
That may hurt the Biden family China income down the road as well as others on the hill
Pretty clear who democrats serve and it ain’t us…
Like I said earlier, Probably half are on the payroll or just too stupid.
China dems🇨🇳

I'm sure they or someone connected to them will make money on the deal somehow. The SPR should not be allowed to go anywhere outside U.S. territory period.
laura_7771 It appears Hunter is involved in these deals
VOTE OUT THE COMMUMIST DEMS! VoteRedToSaveAmerica VoteHimOut VoteRed
dnc democommies
So, China supports Russia, we support China, therefore we're supporting Russia indirectly and sending money to Ukraine. Sounds like WWII all over again.
Selling it to China also. Who’s in bed with who. We are doomed. This administration is destroying America and we may never recover. They’ve got their millions so to hell with us! Blows my mind everything they act. I cannot believe other dems follow no . fixourgovernmemt
Democrats will vote against anything not brought to the floor by a Democrat.
The beauty of what the Republicans are doing with these bills is that it will force these cowardly Democrats to explain their votes against them to their constituents. Not a good look for them at all.
You mean the 'America Last' House Democrats?
TheDemocrats (aka “American Communists”) will take any opportunity to promote the interests of their true overlords—the Chinese Communists. Democrats hate every one of America’s founding values and will not rest until they have parked tanks in each of towns to ensure compliance.
Jail
Unbelievable
This wouldn't even matter if we were drilling our own resources!! Manufactured crisis. I feel like im living in a nightmare
Of course they did
Traitors. TheDemocrats DNC POTUS
Clear cut treason
...just freshly showered.. smelling great. Brandon is toast.
Despicable . They really do hate this Country. Midterms will flush this garbage out .🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
They hate America😡😡😡
I'm sure lobbying Pelosi got her share and distributed accordingly
I wonder if Hunter us on the Board of these entities.
They can provide America's enemies with oil, but not its citizens.
Traitors
