President Joe Biden finds himself stuck between environmental concerns and the need for energy independence.
However, the $8 billion proposal comes amid tensions between the Biden administration's initial promise to review new drilling projects on federally owned land as well as an ongoing push for U.S. energy independence, including reducing reliance on foreign sources of oil.
However, officials with ConocoPhillips have claimed that the proposed scale reductions being pushed by Biden could make the project non-viable, and could be considering a lawsuit of their own if the administration pulls the plug on the Willow Project after roughly a half-decade of planning, CNN reported.
