FOX Business host Taylor Riggs joined 'Fox & Friends First' to discuss how the move impacts President Biden's legacy and how it could impact Trump's ability to drill and ultimately bring energy prices down.


The article discusses President Joe Biden's decision to issue a sweeping ban on oil and gas drilling in certain areas, as highlighted by a video report from MSNBC. This ban, which was implemented ahead of the Trump administration's potential reversal of such policies, aims to protect public lands and waters from the environmental risks associated with fossil fuel extraction. The move is part of Biden's broader climate agenda to reduce reliance on fossil fuels, combat climate change, and transition towards renewable energy sources. The ban has stirred controversy, with critics arguing it could lead to increased dependence on foreign oil, higher energy prices, and job losses in the oil and gas sector. However, supporters applaud the decision as a necessary step to safeguard the environment and public health, emphasizing that the risks of drilling, including potential oil spills and contributions to global warming, outweigh the economic benefits.
