Trump Repeals Biden's Conservation Rule, Opening Public Lands
Description
The Interior Department, under President Trump, has repealed a Biden-era rule that balanced conservation and development on public lands. This move clears the way for increased drilling, logging, mining, and grazing, potentially impacting energy production, timber jobs, and ranchers. Supporters argue the rule ignored conservation, while critics claim it broke the multiple-use policy. The repeal, set to hit the Federal Register this Tuesday, follows Congress scrapping late Biden plans limiting development in Alaska, Montana, and North Dakota. The bureau also oversees underground minerals like coal and lithium, setting the stage for bigger industry access on these federal lands.
