Trump's drilling pause

After proposing a wide expansion of coastal oil and gas drilling on our coasts in 2018, Trump is now extending a moratorium on the southern Atlantic coasts and Florida's western shore - battleground states in the upcoming election.

Should Trump prevail on the third of November, it doesn't take a whole lot of imagination to know what will happen to that moratorium after the election.
