1Joe Biden said his administration was canceling all remaining oil and gas leases in the Arctic Refuge issued under Trump
Verdict: True.
Joe Biden through the official @POTUS X account, said:
My Administration is canceling all remaining oil and gas leases issued under the last administration in the Arctic Refuge and proposing to protect 13 million acres in the Western Arctic.
The original tweet is available below.
Note: This post specifies “all remaining oil and gas leases issued under the last administration“. It’s not clear if that happens to equal all oil and gas leases in the arctic refuge or not (perhaps there are additional ones which were issued during the Obama presidency which would still be permitted).
My Administration is canceling all remaining oil and gas leases issued under the last administration in the Arctic Refuge and proposing to protect 13 million acres in the Western Arctic.
— President Biden (@POTUS) September 7, 2023
There's more to do, but we’re taking action to meet the moment for future generations.
In plain language:
Yes. Joe Biden said his administration was canceling all remaining oil and gas leases in the Arctic Refuge issued under Trump.
