Incoming White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said the ban on oil drilling isn’t coming from President Joe Biden but the “radical Left environmental extremists” within his administration who are “not pro-America.”
The White House announced a ban across 625 million ocean acres on the day the 2024 election is set to be certified in President-elect Donald Trump’s favor. This ban includes acres off the East Coast, plus the California, Oregon, Washington, and Alaska coasts and the eastern Gulf of Mexico.
