First, drilling in ANWR wouldn't even provide us with any oil for 8 years or more. It takes a long time just to set that kind of operation up.
So it won't actually relieve anything. Then, the recoverable oil will not reduce our foreign dependence by more than 3%. Trust me on that, I did several debates and research papers on ANWR for my geology classes in college. That 3% is nothing. Drilling in ANWR is not a solution.
