Expressing the sense of Congress that the Federal Government should not impose any restrictions on the export of crude oil or other petroleum products.

HCONRES 17 is a non-binding congressional resolution expressing that the U.S. Congress believes the federal government should not impose restrictions on crude oil or petroleum product exports. It cites the 2015 repeal of export bans, U.S. growth as a top oil producer, and 2019 status as a net petroleum exporter as reasons for this position. The resolution specifically urges against overly restrictive regulations on energy production and any export restrictions under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act. It does not change existing law but formally states congressional sentiment on this policy matter.
