     SEC. 1085. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING EXPORTS OF CRUDE OIL.

       It is the sense of Congress that exports of crude oil to 
     allies and partners of the United States should not be 
     determined to be consistent with the national interest and 
     the purposes of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (42 
     U.S.C. 6201 et seq.) if those exports would increase energy 
     prices in the United States for American consumers or 
     businesses or increase the reliance of the United States on 
     imported oil.
