Biden’s EPA Has America’s Biggest Oil Field In Its Regulatory Crosshairs
(Worthy News) – The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is considering labeling the United States’ largest oil field in violation of ozone pollution standards, threatening drilling operations in the region and, by extension, domestic oil production.
