Trump Signs Executive Order to Expand Energy Extraction in Alaska, Revoking Offshore Leasing Bans and Opening Section 1002 Area of ANWR
Jan 21, 2025, 01:04 AM
On January 21, 2025, President Trump signed an executive order aimed at expanding energy extraction in Alaska, which includes revoking offshore oil and gas leasing bans that had previously restricted drilling in most U.S. coastal waters. This move is part of a broader initiative to enhance American energy development. The executive order specifically targets Alaska's natural resources, opening up areas for exploration and extraction, including the Section 1002 area of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR). Trump's actions are seen as a response to previous executive orders enacted by President Biden that limited natural resource exploitation in the region.
