President Biden has angered young voters and climate activists by approving a massive oil drilling project in Alaska, the New York Times reported.
"He takes one step forward with the I.R.A., and two steps back with the Willow project," Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., said.
Michele Weindling, the electoral director of the environmental group the Sunrise Movement, said it was a"huge" opportunity for the Biden administration to say"no" to the oil industry. "The Biden administration has committed to fighting climate change and advancing environmental justice—today’s decision to approve the Willow project fails to live up to those promises," Ocasio-Cortez said in a joint statement with Reps. Raul Grijalva, D-Ariz., Jared Huffman, D-Calif., and Sen. Ed Markey, D-Mass."Their decision ignores ... the irrefutable science that says we must stop building projects like this to slow the ever more devastating impacts of climate change.
