Description
Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia raised expectations Tuesday
for a deal to update the nation’s permitting rules, saying he hopes to
soon release the text of an agreement he aims to strike with Republican
Sen. John Barrasso. But it’s not clear whether it will represent a
breakthrough on the issue, which has drawn bipartisan interest but seen
little progress over the last two years. POLITICO’s Josh Siegel and
Catherine Morehouse discuss the latest in the negotiations and the
remaining legislative challenges. Plus, the Biden Administration
announced it would release 42 million gallons of gasoline from the
strategic fuel reserve into the Northeast markets.

From the archives: Inside Exxon’s lobbying playbook: Earlier this year, Britain’s Channel 4 released an explosive story where a lobbyist for Exxon disclosed what he called the company’s lobbying playbook. According to the lobbyist, the company’s public climate campaign is the opposite of what it pushes senators behind closed doors, and that’s just the beginning. Today, POLITICO’s Ben Lefebvre discusses the company’s strategy, and how this revelation could shift the ongoing climate discussions. by POLITICO Energy
