Rep. Bill Johnson (R-Ohio) is urging the U.S. House committees, with jurisdiction over U.S. energy policies, to investigate evidence that Russia has made a concerted effort to have western nations, including the United States, become dependent on Russian fossil fuels, by funding a social media campaign and activist groups.
“So, there’s also evidence in that report that the Russians have done the same thing here in America, funding activist organizations that have tried to impact and influence American energy policy,” Johnson told host of NTD Capitol Report, Steve Lance, during a March 9 interview.
