Biden cancelled a lot of drilling permits his first week in iffice, now I suppose he'll try to take credit for expanding our ability to drill for new reserves.

PV2 Larry Sellnow I don't think Biden left any, that was the primary reason Gas increased in price so high after the Pandemic and the country started moving again.

Why aren't oil companies drilling on their 9,000 land leases?
Biden complained about unused leases in his bid to spur supply and reduce gasoline prices. But labor and materials shortages hinder drilling.

..."The project has been approved, but the Department of the Interior says its scope has been reduced by 40 percent. Instead of five drilling pads, there will be three.
But even a pared down project doesn’t align with President Joe Biden’s climate goals. He made it a point in his 2020 campaign to criticize drilling on federal land.
Many environmentalists say the Willow Project will be a“carbon-bomb.”
We discuss the debate over drilling for oil in Alaska and the future of fossil fuels."
