Biden moves to limit oil drilling in Arctic Wildlife Refuge after Trump victory

The Biden administration is seeking to limit oil drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, releasing a plan on Wednesday shortly after President-elect Trump’s victory in the presidential race.
Drilling in that area has been a hotly-contested issue for decades.

The Alaska Beacon reports that “at least 400,000 acres in the refuge’s coastal plain would be available for oil and gas leasing, but only in areas deemed to have high potential for holding hydrocarbons and only under some new environmental restrictions to protect wildlife and other resources.”

The Liberty Beacon Project is now expanding at a near exponential rate, and for this we are grateful and excited! But we must also be practical. For 7 years we have not asked for any donations, and have built this project with our own funds as we grew. We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)
