Rep. Tom Tiffany (R-Wis.) on Thursday urged House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) to formally investigate whether Biden administration officials suggested Saudi Arabia delay the decision of a group of key oil-producing countries to cut oil output until after the midterms.
Tiffany wrote to Pelosi asking for the Congressional probe after Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud suggested in an official statement that the Biden administration asked the kingdom to “postpon[e] the OPEC+ decision for a month.”
