Ro Khanna called for Biden to ensure \"affordable and reliable energy for American families.\"'<blockquote>加州众议员罗·卡纳 (Ro Khanna) 领导的众议院民主党人称此事为“紧迫问题”，并呼吁拜登确保“为美国家庭提供负担得起且可靠的能源”。</blockquote> \"We must use all tools at our disposal to bring down gasoline prices in the short term,\" reads the letter, which was also signed by eight other Democrats, including Reps. Barbara Lee, Katie Porter, Darren Soto and others. Senate Democrats sent Biden a similar letter earlier this month.<blockquote>“我们必须利用一切可以利用的工具在短期内降低汽油价格，”这封信还得到了其他八名民主党人的签名，其中包括众议员芭芭拉·李、凯蒂·波特、达伦·索托等人。本月早些时候，参议院民主党人向拜登发送了一封类似的信。</blockquote> 'Not a panacea'<blockquote>“不是灵丹妙药”</blockquote> Biden could be ready to use one of those tools as soon as Tuesday.<blockquote>拜登最早可能在周二就准备好使用其中一种工具。</blockquote> Biden hopes to announce his decision to release oil from the SPR in an economic speech on Tuesday,officials told CNN.However, the timing of such a move is contingent on the other nations finalizing their agreements to do the same, officials said.<blockquote>官员们告诉美国有线电视新闻网， 拜登希望在周二的经济演讲中宣布他从春季释放石油的决定。然而，官员们表示，此举的时机取决于其他国家最终达成同样的协议。</blockquote> The specter of the United States, and potentially other nations, releasing emergency barrels has already helped to lower oil prices. After topping $85 a barrel in late October, US oil prices have declined about 10%. That in turn has helped put a lid on surging gasoline prices. The national average is $3.41 a gallon, roughly flat with a week ago,according to AAA.<blockquote>美国以及潜在的其他国家释放紧急石油的幽灵已经帮助降低了油价。10月下旬突破每桶85美元后，美国油价已下跌约10%。这反过来又有助于遏制飙升的汽油价格。根据 AAA 的数据，全国平均价格为每加仑 3.41 美元，与一周前大致持平。</blockquote> \"Our primary responsibility is how do we bring the cost down for working class Americans,\" Khanna told CNN in a phone interview. \"This is something that people are upset about. We need to address that concern.\"<blockquote>卡纳在接受美国有线电视新闻网电话采访时表示：“我们的首要责任是如何降低美国工人阶级的成本。”“这是人们感到不安的事情。我们需要解决这种担忧。”</blockquote> However, even proponents of tapping the SPR acknowledge it isn't a long-term fix. It's more of a band-aid.<blockquote>然而，即使是利用SPR的支持者也承认这不是一个长期的解决方案。更像是创可贴。</blockquote> That's because there is a finite amount of oil in emergency reserves. And releasing barrels won't solve the underlying supply-demand imbalance caused by surging demand amid the economic recovery and lackluster supply from OPEC, the United States and other major producers.<blockquote>这是因为应急储备中的石油数量是有限的。释放石油并不能解决经济复苏期间需求激增以及欧佩克、美国和其他主要产油国供应疲软导致的潜在供需失衡。</blockquote> \"It's not going to be a panacea. But we've got to do what we can,\" Khanna said in the interview.<blockquote>“这不会是灵丹妙药。但我们必须尽我们所能，”卡纳在采访中说。</blockquote> Would export ban help — or hurt?<blockquote>出口禁令会有所帮助还是有害？</blockquote> But the House Democrats suggest Biden should seriously consider the more dramatic step of banning oil exports -- even though multiple industry experts have warned such a step could backfire on US consumers.<blockquote>但众议院民主党人建议拜登应该认真考虑禁止石油出口这一更具戏剧性的举措——尽管多位行业专家警告称，这一举措可能会对美国消费者产生适得其反的影响。</blockquote> \"A ban on US crude oil exports will boost domestic supply and put downward pressure on prices for American families,\" the letter from House Democrats said.<blockquote>众议院民主党人在信中表示：“禁止美国原油出口将增加国内供应，并给美国家庭的价格带来下行压力。”</blockquote> This idea has reached the top levels of the Biden administration. The soaring costs of gasoline so alarmed White House chief of staff Ron Klain at one point that he suggested taking the dramatic step of halting US oil exports to drive costs down, one official told CNN. Administration officials believe they could secure an agreement on a coordinated release that wouldn't require banning exports.<blockquote>这个想法已经传到了拜登政府的最高层。一名官员告诉美国有线电视新闻网（CNN），汽油价格飙升一度让白宫办公厅主任罗恩·克莱因感到震惊，以至于他建议采取停止美国石油出口的戏剧性措施来降低成本。政府官员认为，他们可以就协调释放达成协议，而不需要禁止出口。</blockquote> However, Goldman Sachs told clients last month that an export ban would likely be \"counterproductive\" and have a \"likely bullish impact\" on retail fuel prices.<blockquote>然而，高盛上个月告诉客户，出口禁令可能会“适得其反”，并对零售燃油价格产生“可能的看涨影响”。</blockquote> That's because oil is a globally traded commodity and US gas prices are set by Brent, the world benchmark. If the world lost access to US barrels, Brent prices would likely rise due to less supply.<blockquote>这是因为石油是一种全球交易的商品，而美国天然气价格是由世界基准布伦特原油价格设定的。如果世界无法获得美国原油，布伦特原油价格可能会因供应减少而上涨。</blockquote> And US oil refiners can't rely on domestic oil alone to produce the diesel, jet fuel and gasoline that the economy relies on. Refineries blend US oil with foreign barrels to churn out these products.<blockquote>美国炼油厂不能仅仅依靠国内石油来生产经济所依赖的柴油、喷气燃料和汽油。炼油厂将美国石油与外国桶混合，生产出这些产品。</blockquote> Khanna cast doubt on the analysis from industry experts, arguing they could be conflicted in warning against oil export bans.<blockquote>卡纳对行业专家的分析表示怀疑，认为他们在警告石油出口禁令时可能会相互矛盾。</blockquote> \"It's a real stretch to argue that increasing domestic supply of a product is somehow bad for Americans,\" Khanna said.<blockquote>卡纳说：“认为增加一种产品的国内供应在某种程度上对美国人不利，这确实有些牵强。”</blockquote> Yet even Mark Zandi, an economist frequently cited by the White House, is skeptical.<blockquote>然而，就连经常被白宫引用的经济学家马克·赞迪也持怀疑态度。</blockquote> \"I'm not a fan of banning oil exports,\" Zandi, the chief economist at Moody's Analytics, told CNN in an email. \"I doubt it will meaningfully lower gasoline prices, as the price of gas is largely determined by global oil prices and not the price of domestically produced oil. It is also unclear whether domestic refineries would be able to efficiently process the type of oil that the U.S. exports.\"<blockquote>穆迪分析公司首席经济学家赞迪在一封电子邮件中告诉美国有线电视新闻网：“我不喜欢禁止石油出口。”“我怀疑这是否会有意义地降低汽油价格，因为天然气价格在很大程度上是由全球油价决定的，而不是国内生产的石油的价格。目前还不清楚国内炼油厂是否能够高效加工美国出口的石油类型。”</blockquote>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>House Democrats call for Biden to ban oil exports and tap emergency reserves<blockquote>众议院民主党人看涨期权拜登禁止石油出口并动用紧急储备</blockquote></title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 12.5px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nHouse Democrats call for Biden to ban oil exports and tap emergency reserves<blockquote>众议院民主党人看涨期权拜登禁止石油出口并动用紧急储备</blockquote>\n</h2>\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\nCNN Business2021-11-23 10:55\n\n</h4>\n</header>\n<article>\nNew York (CNN Business)&nbsp;-&nbsp;Nearly a dozen Congressional Democrats are urging President Joe Biden to combat high gas prices by not only releasing barrels from the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve but by banning US oil exports, according to a letter viewed by CNN.<blockquote>纽约（CNN 商业频道）- 据美国有线电视新闻网（CNN）看到的一封信称，近十几名国会民主党人敦促乔-拜登总统不仅要从美国战略石油储备中释放石油，还要禁止美国石油出口，从而应对高油价。</blockquote> The letter sent Monday to Biden&nbsp;adds to the pressure the White House&nbsp;is facing even from its own party to lower&nbsp;prices at the pump&nbsp;that are angering Americans and contributing to the&nbsp;biggest inflation spike in decades.<blockquote>周一发给拜登的这封信增加了白宫面临的压力，甚至来自白宫自己的政党，要求降低加油站的价格，这激怒了美国人，并导致了几十年来最大的通胀飙升。</blockquote> Calling the matter an \"urgent issue,\" House Democrats led by California Rep.
