Brian Varela praised President Biden’s decision to use the Defense Production Act to boost American production of critical minerals that are key to building up our clean energy supply chains and the release of one million barrels per day for six months from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, which will moderate unreasonably inflated gasoline prices.
Varela, a Democratic congressional candidate in New Jersey’s heavily Democratic 8th District, is the CEO at Varemar Digital Marketing, who earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from Kean University, and a Master of Business Administration (MBA) from UNC Kenan–Flagler Business School, an internationally accredited global business school at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

“The only comprehensive climate legislation ever to pass a chamber of Congress died without even getting a vote in the US Senate, where my opponent’s father sits after nearly 30 years in Washington,” said Varela, who pledged to do much more to influence on national and international energy policy than his challenger, who has failed to mention a single issue since becoming a candidate on January 6.
In 2008, Menendez said that $4 a gallon gas prices are an indication that politicians want to protect oil companies even when it comes at the expense of American families.
forcing American families into a painful choice when it comes time to fill-up – do they fill up their gas tank, or do they forego a gallon of gas to buy a gallon of milk?” said Senator . “Today we had the opportunity to target some of the practices that keep gas prices artificially high, but the Republican ‘No’ Machine seem
