The devastating fallout of the Biden administration's job-killing rampage continues after he canceled the sale of 80 million acres of Gulf of Mexico oil leases that was scheduled for Wednesday in New Orleans, KLFY-TV in Lafayette, Louisiana, reported Monday.

“It would kill our state. It would kill workers,” Mike Moncla, president of the Louisiana Oil and Gas Association, said of the Biden administration's move. “It would kill jobs, and it would be a terrible thing.”

According to the Moncla and the association, nearly 250,000 Louisiana residents work in the oil and gas industry, and 98,000 of them have offshore jobs.

Hey, I’m with you......I want defiance done yesterday!! The idiots in the Northeast and WestCoast can ESAD if they want to live under tyranny but we don’t. This might be the time for this bloated, corrupt central government to be shown the door! I wish Greg Abbott would get off the dime and do something as far as Texas is concerned......we’re like New Mexico, Arizona and Southern Cali......we’re in deep doo-doo with these migrants coming in and invading at the behest of the cartels......wait, the GOOBERMENT is being driven by the cartels more than we realize. I don’t want a bunch of people being offered something they’re not going to get, with diseases they’ve never been vaccinated against and other diseases and viruses that can start this shyte show all over again......lockdowns/masks from head to toe. Hmmmmm, I just thought something........maybe that’s what the goobers in WDC want?
