    13 States Sue Biden Administration Over Federal Oil And Gas Leasing Ban

    A coalition of 13 states sued President Joe Biden?s administration Wednesday over its Jan. 27 ban of new oil and gas leasing on federal lands.

    ?By executive fiat, Joe Biden and his administration have single-handedly driven the price of energy up,? Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry said during a press conference Wednesday.

    Biden?s executive order violated both the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act and the Mineral Leasing Act, which affirm Congress? intent to use U.S. resources to achieve energy independence, the lawsuit alleged.
