Protecting America’s Strategic Petroleum Reserve from China Act

HR 2806 prohibits the Secretary of Energy from selling petroleum products from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to entities under Chinese Communist Party control or if the products could be exported to China. It directly affects U.S. energy sales to Chinese-linked companies and the Department of Energy’s management of the reserve. Key provisions require the Secretary to block such sales and mandate that any sale not result in exports to China. This policy change restricts access to U.S. strategic oil reserves for China-related entities.
