Oil Men Back Import Curbs and Gas Bill Support
The Independent Petroleum Association of America backed the voluntary oil import curb program and voted to continue support for the Harris-O’Hara natural gas bill at its annual convention closing. They urged Congress and the executive branch to limit imports for national defense and consumer protection, while warning against blanket producer controls at the wellhead. Former Undersecretary Herbert Hoover Jr. noted refining imports also impact policy, and the association pledged ongoing cooperation and vigilance toward a lasting solution.
