Stauber Slams Biden’s Disastrous Ban on Offshore Oil and Gas Drilling
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Following President Biden’s recent announcement regarding a ban on oil and gas development in more than 600 million acres of federal waters, Congressman Stauber released the following statement:
“This decision, made in the 11th hour of his Presidency, was a slap in the face to the overwhelming majority of Americans who voted to unleash America’s energy resources in the November election. Not only does his decision keep America reliant on foreign adversaries for our energy resources, but it will also drive-up energy costs and keep energy workers out of the job. While President Biden is intentionally trying to prevent the incoming Trump Administration from successfully achieving American energy independence, we will not be deterred. We will use every tool in our toolbox to fight this ban and lead the world in energy production once again!”
