Not quite understand why it could not be reversed. Seems like all the time, one president does one thing, and the next president reverses it.

Joe's Chinese handlers will begin drilling in these offshore locations next week.

Nor do I. This should be a matter of legislation, not executive fiat. But, Congress has long-ago yielded its power over this king of stuff to the executive. Cowards, all of them.
On another point (and I don't know enough about petroleum supply, etc) I have to wonder how banning drilling on 650 million acres squares with Biden's boasts about the greatest oil supply occurring during his term.

BTW, y'all do know the money generated by offshore oil leases helps fund conservation?

He could have done it in any of over a thousand days ago, but he chose to spite Trump.
The pathetic senile old man.
Biden is invoking the 1953 Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA) to prevent new fossil fuel developments off the East and West coasts of the U.S. as well as in the Eastern Gulf of Mexico and Alaska’s North Bering Sea.
The law gives presidents the power to permanently withdraw parts of the Outer Continental Shelf from future oil and gas leasing—but doesn’t include a provision for how another president could revoke such an order. Trump would therefore likely have to get Congress to change the law before he could undo Biden’s action.
Biden’s decision, which could pose problems for Trump’s plans to quickly ramp up fossil fuel production when he returns to office this month, was condemned by Trump’s incoming press secretary.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

So, right now, nothing is being drilled there, correct? It is only new drilling - drilling currently in progress will contineu?

I doubt that Mr. Biden even knows about this.
And if he does he doesn't understand it.
This is all his nurses and therapists issuing executive orders while they have the opportunity.

When you shake someone's deep sense of self-worth, leaving a scar in their ego, they will persistently try to diminish you through petty arguments & obsessive captious criticism of your actions, just to soothe the wound.

Can you be more specific?
He kicked Trump's fat ass in oil production?

@jon-nyc said in (Don't) Drill Baby, Drill!:
A 5% increase qualifies as "kicking ass?"
" Crude oil production in the United States, including condensate, averaged 12.9 million barrels per day (b/d) in 2023, breaking the previous U.S. and global record of 12.3 million b/d, set in 2019"

That picture is worth a thousand words. @jon-nyc and @taiwan_girl want to focus on 7 of them and ignore the other 993z -
