Temporally coincidental to the upcoming elections.
Those republicans need all the help they can get and big oil is doing the best they can to assist.

Congress even ordered Medicare and Medicaid not to make any payments for the last 9 days of the government’s fiscal year that ended in September in order to make the deficit appear smaller.
Of course in the first week of October the deficit increased by $48 billion.
