“Biden Clears the Way for Alaska Oil Project

The administration issued an analysis that indicates a scaled-back version of the Willow project could go forward. Opponents call the drilling plan a “carbon bomb.””

"There’s no reason they have to go into this area."

“Rosemary Ahtuangaruak, Mayor of Nuiqsut, recently told lawmakers she opposes the Willow project. It will encroach on the habitat of migratory birds, whales, polar bears, & caribou that locals depend on.”

“The Willow Project is a disastrous Western Arctic drilling plan and the Biden administration has less than 30 days to finalize its decision to grant or deny permits to ConocoPhillips. You can pressure the administration to do the right thing.”

First comes the fear mongering,...

This is the Democratic Party using fear and using fake had wringing to cram down Republicans' cuts to the quality of life experienced by the nonbillionaires. Next will come the "...but the consequences if we didn't cut Social Security and Medicare, etc.,..." But in reality, Republicans pushing the matter to economic destruction would be their own suicide. Democrats know this but will sign the cuts anyway.:
