CONCORD, N.H. (WCAX) - Ahead of the winter months, New Hampshire Congresswoman Annie Kuster is trying to keep down heating costs.

In a statement, Kuster, D-New Hampshire, said the Home Heating Oil Price Reduction Act would quadruple the Northeast Home Heating Oil Reserve from 1 million to 4 million barrels.

The goal is to increase available supply in the region and help control price volatility.

Kuster said she’s calling on the Biden administration to release home heating oil supplies as soon as possible.
