It looks like Nevada’s Democratic senators are taking a more bipartisan stance when it comes to energy policy.
Their support for overturning the Biden-era rule requiring archaeological reports before offshore drilling suggests they’re prioritizing economic or energy concerns, even if it means breaking with their party.
Given Nevada’s mining and energy interests, their votes might reflect a balancing act between environmental regulation and industry concerns.
It’s also interesting that the Congressional Review Act is being used here, as it’s often a tool for rolling back regulations when there’s a shift in political power.
Plus, with Trump needing to approve the reversal, it hints at how energy policy could shape up under a possible second Trump administration.
