	Description:		Scott Sheffield, the former CEO of one of America’s top oil companies, is firing back against allegations from the Federal Trade Commission that he colluded with OPEC and other oil companies to boost fuel prices. It’s the latest development in a saga that has thrown US oil companies into the political spotlight during the 2024 election season. POLITICO’s Ben Lefebvre breaks down how Sheffield is defending himself and why these allegations have become a political flashpoint. Plus, the Biden administration proposed initial guidance for technology-neutral tax credits expected to account for the bulk of greenhouse gas reductions under Democrats’ climate law.
