Schumer dodges questions on Biden’s approval of major Alaskan oil project as Democrats fume -

Mr. Biden approved the ConocoPhillips oil project known as Willow on Monday, dishing a major defeat to clean energy allies but a major win for energy advocates and Alaska’s bipartisan lawmakers who say it will be an economic gamechanger for the state.

Mr. Biden’s stamp of approval for Willow came amid high political stakes ahead of his expected reelection announcement, with voters facing soaring energy costs. “This decision not only leaves an oil stain on the administration’s climate accomplishments and the president’s commitment not to permit new oil and gas drilling on federal land, but slows our progress in the fight for a more livable future and puts into harm’s way the neighboring Native Village of Nuiqsut and the Arctic landscape,” said Sen. Ed Markey, Massachusetts Democrat and co-author of the Green New Deal.

By comparison, the U.S. produces a little more than 12 million barrels per day, meaning Willow will account for roughly 1.5% of the country’s total production.
