From CBN:
One of the world’s leading electric car innovators is calling for more oil drilling “immediately” at this crucial moment in history.
Elon Musk, the co-founder and CEO of Tesla, wrote in a tweet some say was aimed at the Biden administration: “Hate to say it, but we need to increase oil & gas output immediately. Extraordinary times demand extraordinary measures.”
The Dems in New Mexico have been out to destroy the oil and gas industry here in New Mexico and our entire nation. It is time to stop and drill for the people of America and the World!!!

Senate Republican Leader, Senator Greg Baca, and Senator David Gallegos Issue Statement on Russian Oil Sanctions
SANTA FE – Today, President Joe Biden announced that the United States will be banning all imports of Russian oil and gas. New Mexico is one of the top five energy producing states in the nation, producing around 3,432 trillion Btu annually. By contrast, the United States imports around 1,481 trillion Btu of Russian crude oil annually.
“New Mexico has a unique opportunity to be the solution to a global crisis and the economic burden the Biden administration placed on working class families at the pump,” said Senate Republican Leader, Senator Greg Baca (District 29-Bernalillo and Valencia). “It is time to buy local. American energy is not just cleaner, more efficient, and better for our economy—it is what the world needs.”
“Now is the time for New Mexico to stand in the gap as the world faces a looming energy crisis,” added Senator David Gallegos (District 41-Eddy and Lea). “We should not have to look to Iran, Saudi Arabia and Venezuela”, and other nations to provide energy we can produce right here at home. American energy independence is possible and New Mexico can help lead this effort.”
