Chevron's conduct is not consistent with Trump's agenda

Here are two truths: Louisiana is an unapologetically pro-energy state, and President Donald Trump isn’t easily fooled. Taken together, those facts underscore the desperate absurdity of accusations that Louisiana’s efforts to hold energy giant Chevron accountable for its decadeslong pollution of our state’s coastal wetlands are somehow inconsistent with the president’s energy independence agenda.

For more than a century, our people have supported exploration, production, and refining oil and gas. As Louisiana’s solicitor general and now attorney general, I’ve led the nation in fighting the Biden administration’s wrong-headed approach to energy policy.
