The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Wednesday that President Biden's pause on federal oil and gas leases can go back into effect, lifting a lower court injunction.
Former EPA administrator Scott Pruitt says 'this administration is doing the exact opposite of what they should do' on 'Kudlow.'
When they announced in August 2021 that they were appealing the injunction, the Interior Department stressed the need for the pause, noting that "federal onshore and offshore oil and gas leasing programs are responsible for significant greenhouse gas emissions and growing climate and community impacts.

MHA Nation produces about a quarter of North Dakota's annual oil output. announced the pause on federal oil and gas leases in the early days of his presidency as part of his push to move away from fossil fuels. Existing leases remained in effect.
In November 2021, the Department of the Interior released a report on the federal oil and gas leasing program, which had been ordered by Biden at the time he called for the pause. The report highlighted a need for reform, and made recommendations "to provide a fair return to taxpayers and to steward shared resources."
