No. By the end of 2021, the Biden Administration will have handed out more oil and gas drilling permits than any year under former President Trump. In fact, on the campaign trail, Biden pledged to end oil and gas permits for drilling on federal lands. However, as the cost of fuel has hit working Americans hard, the administration quickly put that policy on hold.
Right now, U.S. oil companies have been given more federal land drilling permits than during any year under the last two presidents but they’re not drilling.
