Plain-English Summary

This bill would prevent the U.S. government from selling oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to countries considered foreign adversaries, such as China or Russia. The goal is to ensure that America's emergency oil stockpile—meant to protect national security during supply disruptions—doesn't end up benefiting hostile nations or strengthening their economies. The measure affects oil companies that might buy reserve oil and the government agencies that manage the reserve.
