President Biden signed an executive order Thursday afternoon reversing the Mexico City policy, permitting U.S. aid money once again to fund groups that provide or promote abortion around the globe. The policy was first put in place by President Ronald Reagan in an effort to ensure that taxpayers were not required to indirectly fund abortion procedures performed in other countries. The policy has been undone via executive order by every subsequent Democratic administration and reinstated by each Republican one. The Trump administration expanded the policy to include not only family planning funds distributed by the State Department and the U.S.

BISMARCK, N.D. (KFYR) – Within his first week in office, President Joe Biden has made significant changes to the country’s energy industry through an array of executive orders. Last week, the president revoked a critical permit for the Keystone XL pipeline. On Wednesday, Biden paused all new oil and natural gas leases on public lands and offshore waters “to the extent possible.” Senator Steve Daines, R-Mont., says he’s joining with other western senators to introduce two bills, one to allow construction on the Keystone XL pipeline to continue, and another to reverse the moratorium on oil and gas leasing on

Montana Senator Steve Daines was on the Montana Morning News show on Wednesday to discuss a variety of topics, but at the top of the list was President Biden’s cancellation of the Keystone XL Pipeline. “If you don’t believe that elections have consequences take a look at what happened within six hours after Joe Biden took the Office of the oath of office,” said Daines. “He killed the Keystone XL Pipeline one stroke of the pen. This is all part of Biden’s ‘make America unemployed again strategy’. He’s declared war on American energy. This is about putting Saudi Arabia first

WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden is set to announce a wide-ranging moratorium on new oil and gas leasing on U.S. lands and waters, as his administration moves quickly to reverse Trump administration policies on energy and the environment and address climate change. The move follows a 60-day suspension of new drilling permits for U.S. lands and waters announced last week and follows Biden’s campaign pledge to halt new drilling on federally controlled land and water as part of his plan to address climate change. The moratorium is intended to allow time for officials to review the impact of oil and

Declaring the country can’t wait any longer to address the climate crisis, President Joe Biden signed three executive orders Wednesday to prioritize climate change across all levels of government. The Biden plan essentially offers a road map to transform the nation’s fossil-fuel powered economy into a clean-burning one. Its goal is to eliminate pollution from fossil fuels in the power sector by 2035. Topping the president’s bold initiatives, a moratorium on leasing of new oil, gas and coal leases on public lands and waters.

MONTANA – U.S. Sen. Steve Daines said he is putting a bill forward that would backpedal President Joe Biden’s suspension of new oil and gas leases on federal property, Daines announced Wednesday. “President Biden is continuing his attack on American energy, this time by blocking all new oil and gas leases on federal lands. This is another blow to Made in America energy, jobs and our Montana way of life,” Daines said in a release from his office. “This action will kill nearly one million American jobs, increase our reliance on the Middle East for energy, and will result in

On Fox Across America with Jimmy Failla, Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT) explains why President Biden’s Keystone Pipeline policy his hurting the American worker and why Senate Democrats should not hold a second impeachment trial for former President Trump. “They’ve become enemies now of the American worker. They talk about the green-on-blue fight that is occurring in the Democratic Party, the green green folks versus the blue collar. The Democrats have left the blue collar folks behind. That is why President Trump had such a strong following of American workers, because he was standing up for them. And unfortunately, we tried

Following President Joe Biden’s decision to revoke the cross-border operation permit for the Keystone XL Pipeline, U.S. Sens. Jerry Moran (R-KS), Steve Daines (R-MT), and John Hoeven (R-ND) plan to introduce a GOP-led bill to authorize ongoing construction of the project. “Canceling the Keystone XL Pipeline will cost our country thousands of jobs, raise energy prices, and make us more dependent on foreign countries to supply our energy,” Sen. Moran said. “At a time when our economy and communities are hurting due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we should be focusing on sending people back to work not taking their jobs

Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT) reintroduced legislation Tuesday that would stipulate that if Congress cannot pass a balanced budget, members of Congress will not get paid. Daines said in a statement on Tuesday: With runaway public debt now exceeding $27 trillion, we face a looming crisis. In fact, since I introduced this bill two years ago, our debt has increased by more than 30 percent. The American people depend on Congress to do its job. Folks at home balance their budgets, Congress should be able to do the same. The Montana conservative, who was reelected in November, introduced the Balanced Budget

Sen. Steve Daines, R-Mont., on Tuesday said President Joe Biden’s executive order on the Keystone XL Pipeline “take(s) us back to the ’70s” regarding energy policy, bringing with it higher oil prices, inflation, loss of jobs, and national security implications. Daines ridiculed Biden, and Democrats as a whole, on Newsmax TV for their stance on the pipeline and other energy issues, saying the party is beholden to radical leftists. “Many of us remember what happened back in the 1970s, back when we were dependent on the Middle East for oil,” Danes, 58, told “Spicer & Co.” “Thank God for American
