Congress approves measure to overturn Biden-era management plan for Alaska petroleum reserve

House Republicans used the Congressional Review Act to overturn Biden-era leasing limits, reopening 82% of Alaska's National Petroleum Reserve and coal lands in Wyoming, boosting fossil fuel development.

  • Trump's executive order called for reinstating a plan that sought to make about 80% of the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska available for leasing.
  • The House vote followed Senate passage of a resolution disapproving a 2022 Biden-era management plan that limited drilling in the reserve.
  • Critics view the vote as political meddling that creates confusion over future management of the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska.
