Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott on Thursday vowed to oppose what he called the Biden administration’s bid to destroy jobs with its volley of actions targeting the oil and gas industry.
Abbott signed an executive order during a press conference in Odessa on Thursday, which directed all state agencies to sue the Biden administration for any federal actions that threaten the Lone Star state’s energy sector.
“Texas is going to protect the oil and gas industry from any type of hostile attack launched from Washington D.C.,” Abbott said. “President Biden’s embrace of the green new deal is a job killer in Texas. It also takes a wrecking ball to the energy independence that Texas has been able to provide to the United States of America and Texas is not going to stand idly by and watch the Biden administration kill jobs in Midland, in Odessa or any other place across the entire region,” he added.

The FAA is screwing with SpaceX and their testing of Starship , started yesterday
And when do New Mexico, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Wyoming, Montana, North AND South Dakota all kick in?
They all have oil production or refining.
Hopefully as many states as possible file lawsuits against every Biden EO through his entire term.
Texas is blessed buy the fact very little of the state is federal property.
YAY!!!!!!!
“Texas is blessed buy the fact very little of the state is federal property.”
Texas needs to declare biden an illegal president and everything he says or signs deemed therefore an illegal order, and non binding, unconstitutional, and that Texas residents are not required to comply.
I’ll sign the petition, I’ve lived in Texas for years.
We need to just secede but that’s a whole nuther kettle of fish.
Governor Abbott thank you...
Ohio, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Indiana and West Virginia should join the lawsuit, too...
