Hearing on Oil Disruption: Solis's Questions

The Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming is currently holding a hearing, "Shock and Oil: Military Concerns Meet Consumer, Climate Crises." The Committee hosts military and energy experts to examine how a major disruption in oil supply could affect the economy and America's national security. With near $100 oil and rising gasoline and heating oil costs, America is already teetering on the verge of a major economic crisis. Last week, several energy and military experts came together to hold a "war game" exercise on the geopolitical effects of an oil crisis, called "Oil Shockwave." Testifying before the committee are the former head of the EPA, Carol Browner, who was a participant in the oil war game, along with the former Commander of the U.S. Pacific Command, Admiral Dennis Blair, who observed the oil shock exercise and is involved in energy security issues. Rep. Hilda Solis questions the witnesses.
