NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - A large group of U.S. senators, including the two from Louisiana, requests a meeting with President Biden.
Theyâre worried about recent executive orders and their impact on the oil and gas industry, but some say the hand writing was already on the wall.
âThe president is putting together executive orders that are killing jobs,â said Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La).
He is among 25 US senators signed a letter requesting a meeting with President Joe Biden to discuss their concerns about the recent executive orders that prohibit future offshore oil leases.
