Washington, D.C. - Joe Biden’s Interior Secretary had to move her anti-oil celebration over the weekend due to Navajo landowners protest. Deb Haaland was in New Mexico to commemorate her recent, unilateral decision to shut off hundreds of square miles of land from oil and natural gas development. On Sunday, Navajo landowners who benefit from oil development confronted those who supported Haaland’s decision.  In response, Daniel Turner, Founder and Executive Director Daniel Turner issued the following statement:

“These Navajo landowners served up a much-needed dose of reality to Deb Haaland and Joe Biden. The decision to cut off their land from oil and gas development was opposed by the landowners and the leadership of the Navajo Nation, yet the green agenda always comes first for Biden and Haaland. We are grateful to these landowners for popping the distorted DC bubble where Joe Biden and Deb Haaland think they can ignore the voice of the people.”
