President Joe Biden made a recent announcement late Wednesday night that his administration plans to cancel 'all remaining oil and gas leases' in the Western Arctic. This decision raised concerns, especially with the rising gas prices in the United States.

The President stated that the aim is to protect 13 million acres in the Western Arctic and take action for future generations, while acknowledging that there is more work to be done.

However, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) criticized this move, claiming that the Biden administration is purposely driving up gas prices to force Americans to buy electric vehicles (EVs). She argues that they disregard the financial burden this places on individuals and compel conformity to the Green New Deal's environmental agenda.

Gas prices have been climbing steadily, with a 30 cent spike observed in July. The average cost per gallon stands at $3.83, compared to just $2.18 in August 2020. Despite not reaching its peak of $5.01 in June 2022, the rising gas prices are concerning for Americans. Rep. Greene's opposition to the administration's decision reflects the frustration felt by many who fear the impact on their wallets.

Concerningly, some Democrats have advocated the idea that higher gas prices will encourage the purchase of EVs. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg's suggestion to consider EVs as an alternative raised eyebrows. However, it is worth noting that EVs currently remain more costly than gas vehicles, even according to Ford CEO Jim Farley, who projects this trend to continue until at least 2030.
