Biden Administration,Federal Judge,Climate Change

A federal judge has blocked the Biden administration's temporary pause on new liquified natural gas LNG export licenses, which is a victory for the energy industry and a setback for the White House's climate goals.

A federal court halted President Biden's war on America's energy independence by reversing a temporary moratorium on permitting new licenses for liquified natural gas LNG exports. This is a major blow to radical climate warriors in the White House ahead of the November presidential elections. Late Monday, US District Judge James D. Cain Jr. in Louisiana ruled in favor of Louisiana and 15 other red states that had challenged the 'temporary pause' on new LNG export licenses.

In a note in early February, Matt Egan and Brent Bennett of RealClear Wire wrote that the president's politically motivated actions mainly targeted 'Texas and Louisiana, red states that account for the bulk of US LNG exports.' Some have speculated that Biden's action could have been a move to retaliate against red states that opposed open southern borders.
