Georgia gubernatorial candidate Rick Jackson is facing concerns from Georgia lawmakers regarding an oil deal involving a Texas refinery. The refinery, which is not currently operational but is slated to begin production in 2029, received a $20-million loan and has a pending deal to supply oil to India. Jackson's campaign stated that supporting the refinery would bolster U.S. supply and drive down energy costs, criticizing Joe Biden's administration for shipping oil overseas while gas prices were high.
