Summary

Expresses the sense of the Senate that: (1) the President should immediately communicate to the members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) cartel and non-OPEC countries that participate in the cartel of crude oil producing countries that the United States seeks an immediate lifting of the OPEC crude oil production quotas; (2) the President should review policies that may put an undue burden on domestic crude oil producers and consider lifting unnecessary regulations that interfere with the ability of U.S. energy industries to supply a greater percentage of U.S. energy needs; and (3) the Senate should appropriate sufficient funds in the FY 2001 Federal budget for the development of alternative energy resources, including measures to increase the use of biofuels and other renewable resources, to reduce U.S. dependence on foreign energy sources.
