As policy changes move forward, we strongly caution the Biden administration to use the discretion it is afforded by law to carefully scrutinize any proposed oil and gas lease sales for federal public lands. For any proposed new lease on public lands, the Bureau of Land Management must still comply with existing law, including NEPA. This includes the duty to analyze cumulative climate emissions and impacts of any decision to lease and to retain the discretion not to lease. We will hold them to those obligations.
