Trump Is Ready ‘Within Seconds’ to Issue Orders Spurring Drilling

Last updated: | Reading Time: 2 minutes

US President-elect Donald Trump is poising to order changes. It is to encourage spurring drilling domestic oil and gas development immediately after his Jan. 20 inauguration.

“President Trump is going to get to work on day one. This is within seconds of his arrival at the Oval Office.” Karoline Leavitt, a spokeswoman for the Trump-Vance transition team, told Fox News Tuesday. She said that includes executive orders “to drill, baby, drill,”.  Moreover “to expedite permits for drilling and for fracking all over this country so we can immediately bring down the cost of living.”

Leavitt’s comments offer a glimpse at administrative actions Trump could set in motion his first day as the nation’s 47th president, including policy changes that would be executed by federal agencies over months or years to come.

Trump telegraphed similar ambitions on the campaign trail, vowing to “unleash domestic energy production like never before”. This is by ending “delays in federal drilling permits and leases,” freeing up “vast stores of liquid gold. These are all on America’s public land for energy development.” He will also be removing “all red tape that is leaving oil and natural gas projects stranded.”
Trump followed a similar path during his first term in officel. This is with a day-one directive meant to advance the construction of two oil pipelines and a separate executive order tasking federal agencies with scouring regulations for any that burden the development or use of domestically produced energy resources.
