Great environmental news! President Biden is blocking future offshore oil and gas drilling on an additional 625 million acres, protecting wildlife-rich areas in the Bering Sea, along the West Coast, in the eastern Gulf of Mexico, and along the Eastern Seaboard.
It’s noteworthy that Biden’s move, which protects waters equivalent in size to the states of Alaska, California and Colorado, is not easily undone by Donald "Drill! Drill! Drill!" Trump.
BIDEN ADDS to ENVIRONMENTAL LEGACY
