I’m looking at you Pennsvania and laughing right now. Biden pandered from his basement during the campaign to the union thugs in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. Now, he’s putting a lot of them out of work. Biden has banned new fracking leases on federal lands. Get ready to buy oil from the middle east again and likely pay $3-4 per gallon come late spring and summer. Thanks America! You voted for this crap, now you suffer the consequence.

President Joe Biden will announce a ban on new oil and gas leases on federal lands and waters on Wednesday, according to several reports.
Biden’s decision bars any new fracking on federal lands despite his campaign promise not to ban the practice.
“I am not banning fracking. Let me say that again: I am not banning fracking,” Biden said in August 2020 during the presidential campaign. “No matter how many times Donald Trump lies about me.”
Despite multiple promises to end fracking and fossil fuels during the Democrat primary or end “new fracking,” Biden clarified while campaigning in Pennsylvania ahead of the presidential election that he would only ban new fracking on federal lands.
“No, I would not shut down this industry. I know our Republican friends are trying to say I said that,” Biden said about fracking in an interview with Pittsburg’s KDKA News.
