📅The Department of Interior has failed to hold quarterly lease sales for oil and gas resources since President Biden took office.
💼The lack of lease sales is a violation of the Mineral Leasing Act, which requires quarterly sales in each state with federal oil and gas resources.
🏢The department has only held one lease sale in each state in the nine quarters since President Biden took office.
📆The department has now announced plans to hold lease sales in the second and third quarters of this year.
🔐The department promises to always follow the law and will continue to have lease sales.
