Watch Rep. Rho Khanna Backtrack on Domestic Oil Production

Many leading Democrats in Congress, including Rep. Rho Khanna, ran for office promising to end domestic production of natural gas, oil, & coal. Back in October of last year, he praised oil companies for decreasing oil production in Europe and asked if they were embarrassed because they were increasing production in the United States. 

Now Rep. Rho Khanna is singing a different tune and wants to make sure everyone knows that he now wants to distinguish between the long-term and the short-term. In an interview on CNBC, Rep. Khanna said “Of course, we need short-term production to go up.”
