Linking Emergency Oil Reserve Releases to Federal Land Drilling Policy.

This bill restricts the government's ability to sell oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) to lower gas prices if the President simultaneously bans new oil and gas drilling on federal lands. This change ties the use of emergency oil supplies directly to domestic production policies, potentially limiting the government's tools to manage everyday fuel costs. The SPR can still be used during severe crises like war or natural disasters.
