About Romney's Oil Production Lie
FACT CHECK: Oil production on federal land: Romney claimed oil production on federal land is down 14 percent under Obama. But that’s a one-year number. Last year, oil production on federal land was down 13.8 percent, compared to the previous year.
But overall, oil production on federal land under Obama is up from 566 million barrels in 2008 to 626 million barrels in 2011, a 10.6 percent increase.
