| dc.description.abstract | In 2017, the Trump Administration announced a proposal to expand leasing offshore areas for oil and gas development as part of President Trump’s America-First Offshore Energy Strategy. The proposal allows new offshore oil and gas drilling in almost all coastal areas in the United States, contradicting former President Barack Obama’s drilling ban. The colossal expansion will allow oil and gas companies to lease off California’s shores for the first time in decades and make available over one billion acres in the Arctic and Eastern Seaboard for potential oil and gas production. This Article will analyze the opportunities for concerned coasts to oppose offshore oil and gas by exercising the powers reserved to the states throughout the phases of the process. | en_US |
