Diesel Export Embargo

On Sept. 21-22 2026, Ashley Hinson (Iowa), Mike Rogers (Michigan), Mariannette Miller-Meeks and Zach Nunn urged ending Iran war and lowering fuel costs.
They framed ending the war as a duty to protect Iowa and Michigan families from soaring fuel costs.
Mike Rogers demanded an embargo on U.S. diesel exports until the Iran war ends.

Blindspot

The House passed H.Con.Res. 220-204 on Sept. 15, 2026, directing the president to withdraw U.S. forces from Iran unless Congress authorizes further action.

History

Historical Context

1973 OAPEC embargo, led by Saudi Arabia, cut oil to United States, sending crude from $3 to $12 per barrel and prompting gasoline rationing. President Nixon answered with Emergency Petroleum Allocation Act, limiting gasoline allocation. Shock showed volatility can drive shifts, lesson echoed in 2026 resolution by Representatives Hinson, Rogers, Miller-Meeks and Nunn urging Iran troop withdrawal and gasoline-tax suspension.
