Zarb defends Ford energy plan amid oil price rise
Federal Energy Administrator Zarb told the House subcommittee that sky high petroleum prices cut US consumption by at least one million barrels daily and that the Ford program would cut further use by about another million barrels per day. He warned blocking the plan risks another Middle East embargo and noted tariff effects on gasoline prices. He contrasted broader tax approach with gasoline only hikes. Senate action looms as Congress debates votes on related measures.
