On Wednesday, OPEC announced one of the biggest cuts to oil production
since the start of the pandemic: a 2 million-barrel per day cut to its
target starting in November. The move threatens to push gasoline prices
higher and disrupt the positive momentum Democrats and the Biden
administration had enjoyed over the last couple months related to
prices at the pump. POLITICO’s Ben Lefebvre breaks down why OPEC is
cutting oil production and how the Biden administration is responding.
Plus, the Biden administration has kicked off the first formal step in
the process of implementing Democrats’ historic climate and energy bill.
