Another loss in court for the Biden administration

[Tigermike 3,657]

A federal judge issued a ruling Monday that blocks the Biden administration's ban on new exports of liquefied natural gas (LNG) following a challenge by a group of more than a dozen states.

The U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana, Lake Charles Division granted the multi-state coalition's request for a preliminary injunction that prevents the ban on new LNG export projects from taking effect while the case plays out.

"This is a big win for the country's energy industry and the millions of jobs it supports against the attacks from the Biden administration to further its radical climate change agenda at the expense of our economy," West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey said in a statement.

"This administration's Energy Department has no such authority to justify this ban – authority on matters like this lies with Congress and Congress alone," he added.

The Chevron deference SCOTUS decision in action?

Biden loses? I thought the deep state was rigged and supported Dems in everything - cases, elections, whatever. So does that mean Trump is a felon and lost in 2020? It’s hard to keep up.

Why would the export of LNG be banned? I don’t get it.

How do you explain increased oil production under Biden?  What some of you want is for the government to  bend over for the oil industry and treat them even better than Big pharma.  No regulation means disaster.  We have see that before.

Increased production from existing wells.  How much new production?  

 

President Joe Biden has followed through on a campaign pledge by introducing a moratorium on new oil and gas leasing on federal lands and waters.

How many lease rights do they need?  They are stock piling them.

The vast majority of leases are not drilled.  Just because they have a lease doesn't mean there's anything to drill for.
