Biden EPA Threatens Oil And Gas Production In Texas: 40% Of All Oil Produced In The U.S.

It appears that Biden's EPA is relentless in destroying our domestic production of oil and natural gas. They are now going after the Texas oilfields using their "discretionary" powers in an attempt to regulate them out of business.

We will hear from the left that there is no war on domestic production, it is all a right wing conspiracy.

Hint Hint, actions speak louder than leftist propaganda.


Governor Abbott Issues Letter To President Biden On EPA Plan That Threatens Oil And Gas Production In Permian Basin

gov.texas.gov...

Governor Greg Abbott today sent a letter to President Joe Biden on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) plan that could jeopardize a quarter of the nation’s gas supply. The EPA recently announced it may impose a discretionary re-designation of the Permian Basin, which accounts for approximately 40% of all oil produced in the U.S. If allowed to proceed, the EPA’s actions in the Permian Basin could result in draconian regulations that would directly interfere with the nation’s most prolific oil field.

the EPA’s re-designation process lead to higher gas prices for Americans by disrupting roughly 25% of the U.S. oil supply, but it puts at risk hundreds of thousands of good-paying energy jobs. The Texas oil and gas industry directly employs more than 422,000 Texans and supports 1.37 million total direct and indirect Texas jobs.

What're the odds that gets Texas to secede? That's a lot of jobs and a lot of oil.

This is a perfect example of how a president can effect gas prices.

Done one purpose, no more proof could possibly be needed.
To destroy combustion engines, replaced by self-driving government controlled EVs.

Didn't the SCOTUS recently hand down a ruling that the legislature has to make legislation on stuff like this?

This administration doesn't care one bit. Remember the DOJ releasing a statement saying they disagree with a SCOTUS ruling? It's not for them to agree or disagree, only to enforce the law as it is written. Meanwhile, the EPA is pretty much just.going to keep doing whatever they want to as well with no repercussions.

A administration of traitors.Serving a foreign groups agenda and waging economic warfare against the poor and needy citizens.

There will be pink slips and a very cold winter.

The Supreme Court decision last week has emboldened and embittered the radical government agencies. They will break laws now and the consequences be Damned !!!! 🦷

Why yes... yes they did...

And regardless of when they (the O'Biden Admin/EPA) ignore it and try to move forward, all Texas has to do is cite the Supreme Court and tell them to pound sand.

Abbot might just have the stones to do just that. I know DeSantis would.

"Russia Russia Russia Russia" ~ Joe Biden

They dont get it, or think they have an ace in the hole that will bulldoze us in the midterms.

Cant decide if they are smart enough to have an ace, or arrogant enough to think everyone will just accept it.

81 million morons voted for this, exactly what that clown said he was going to do.

They are attacking oil, gas, and coal but cannot make enough electricity to even come close to supplying energy to replace it so people can get to work. I guess we need to all stand up and say no and not vote for anymore Democrats in the future since they are not good for the people of America.

But the left told me that the president cannot affect oil prices? Unless that president is Trump.

Eh, the 81 million are busy believing the man can seize control of the presidential conveyance through bullet proof glass.

Damn of course. How did i not see that !?!

I also think that if New York can ignore the SCOTUS ruling and go ahead with passing a law to outlaw firearms everywhere anyhow, then Texas should be good to pretty much tell the EPA to go pound sand in some equally pithy manner.

Don't forget that they are also personally buying oil/gas/coal at record levels.. I mean a few politicians in congress got busted for hoarding.. But that doesn't mean everyone got busted, its hard to stalk everyone in congress and their family, and friends.. Or paid employee's that are doing the work for them.
