I don't think most people are worried about the US running out in the near future. It is more deliberate decisions and problems during shipping that are a reason to become independent of their deliveries as well, not just of Russia's.
And possibly the cost as well
Especially as the Republicans have a very questionable relation to Russia now.
Going from Russia-dependance to US-dependance could become the same thing geopolitically.
