More Refineries Will Equal Less Vulnerability

By Ill. GOP Rep. John Shimkus - 05/22/06 12:37 PM ET
The lack of refinery capacity is one of the major effects on high gas prices, as was evident after Hurricane Katrina. Allowing a federal coordinator to set timelines for federal agencies involved in the permitting process would help eliminate some of the time-consuming delays. The refinery permitting bill could also help locate a biofuels or coal-to-liquid refinery.
