Oil Execs Asked to Return to Congress

Oil executives have been asked to return to Congress later this month to testify on rising oil prices.

Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) today called top executives from Exxon Mobil, Shell, BP America, Chevron, and ConocoPhillips to testify before his committee Wed., May 21 on “the skyrocketing price of oil.”
