No he needs to rescind it. Any decisions of that magnitude should never be left to an EO. Let Congress pass laws and the President sign or veto as it should be so accountability can be traced.

I disagree. If the American people decide it’s time to drill and do so through forcing their representatives in congress to agree the result will be much better than the president deciding to lift the ban on his own. The first could be described as the will of the American people, the second as the arbitrary action of an autocrat. Let the political process take it’s course. The result will be the same but the political landscape will be much better.
