ment of the Grow American Supply Act for the 
areas made available for leasing under para-
graph (2), the Secretary shall amend the cur-
rent 5-Year Outer Continental Shelf Oil and 
Gas Leasing Program to include a lease sale or 
sales for at least 75 percent of the associated 
areas, unless there are, from the date of ap-
proval, expiration of such time limits, or enact-
ment, as applicable, fewer than 12 months re-
maining in the current 5-Year Leasing Program 
in which case the Secretary shall include the as-
sociated areas within lease sales under the next 
5-Year Leasing Program. For purposes of 
amending the 5-Year Program in accordance

5 years for each extension the withdrawal from leasing for 
all or part of any area within the State’s Adjacent Zone 
located more than 35 miles, but less than 75 miles, from 
the coastline that is subject to subsection (g)(1)(B). A 
State may extend multiple times for any particular area 
but not more than once per calendar year for any par-
ticular area, may a State extend the withdrawal for an 
area to cause it to extend to a total of more than 5 years 
from the date of concurrence by the legislature. A State 
must prepare separate extensions, with enactment of sepa-
rate State statutes, for oil and gas leasing and for natural 
gas leasing. An extension by a State may affect some areas 
to be withdrawn from all leasing and some areas to be 
withdrawn only from one type of leasing. 
‘‘(i) EFFECT OF OTHER LAWS.—Adoption by any 
Adjacent State of any constitutional provision, or enact-
ment of any State statute, that has the effect, as deter-
mined by the Secretary, of restricting either the Governor 
or the Legislature, or both, from exercising full discretion 
related to subsection (g) or (h), or both, shall automati-
cally (1) prohibit any sharing of OCS Receipts under this 
Act with the Adjacent State, and its coastal political sub-
divisions, and (2) prohibit the Adjacent State from exer-
cising any authority under subsection (h), for the duration 
of the restriction. The Secretary shall make the determina-

‘‘(j) PROHIBITION ON LEASING EAST OF THE MILI-
TARY MISSION LINE.— 
‘‘(1) Notwithstanding any other provision of 
law, from and after the date of enactment of the 
Grow American Supply Act, prior to January 1, 
2022, no area of the outer Continental Shelf located 
in the Gulf of Mexico east of the military mission 
line may be offered for leasing for oil and gas or 
natural gas unless a waiver is issued by the Sec-
retary of Defense. If such a waiver is granted, 50 
percent of the OCS Receipts from a lease within 
such area issued because of such waiver shall be 
paid under section 9 and the other 50 percent shall 
be paid annually to the National Guards of all 
States, allocated by the Secretary among the States 
on a per capita basis using the entire population of 
such States.
