The United States has finalized significant reforms to federal oil and gas drilling regulations, a move highlighted under the hashtag #oott. These changes, aimed at making it more expensive for oil and gas producers to drill on federally owned lands, are part of the Interior Department's new rule. This initiative is seen as a huge step in the #PeopleOverPolluters effort, aligning with the reforms made in the Inflation Reduction Act. It ensures that taxpayers are not burdened with the costs associated with drilling activities. House Democrats have praised this move, emphasizing its role in prioritizing people over polluters and cracking down on Big Oil's long-standing exploitation of public lands and its environmental impact.
