Anything obama does TRump can undoes.
Yeah it seems like he’s just trying to create as much paperwork for Trump as possible but I don’t see the purpose.
Nope...article says the law does not allow for the rescinding of protection of the land, only for the granting of it.
“Congress didn’t give the president that power to undo a withdrawal,” said Niel Lawrence, Alaska director of the Natural Resources Defense Council. “Trump may claim it. And it may even get upheld.”
If it is done by a law, the law can be undone.
Sometimes not.
For example, if Obama orders all US forces out of Guantanamo, the Cubans can simply walk in, and rent it to the Sovs, PRC, Iran or the Norks. No one is going to war to get Guantanamo back.
Likewise with pardons. They are absolute and irrevocable, although they can be refused (because accepting one is tantamount to an admission of guilt.) Pardons are so absolute that even if it can be proved they were obtained through bribes, the pardon still stands.
“Anything obama does TRump can undoes.”
First, Trump nominates a certifiably conservative judge to SCOTUS.
Second, file a court case.
Third, auction off the drilling tracts.
Might want to name the least productive tract the Obama tract.
