INTERIOR SECRETARY BURGUM MOVES TO FAST-TRACK U.S. ENERGY PRODUCTION

Shortly after being sworn in, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum began implementing Trump’s energy emergency order, directing agencies to accelerate energy and mineral production on public lands and offshore.

Trump’s first-day energy emergency declaration unlocked broad executive powers to boost oil, gas, and mining—while blocking wind projects.

Secretary Burgum is also rolling back Biden-era restrictions, including reopening offshore drilling on the East & West Coasts and Alaska.

Burgum: “We are unlocking America’s full energy potential.”
