On Wednesday's broadcast of MSNBC's "Hallie Jackson Reports," White House National Climate Adviser Gina McCarthy declared, "President Biden remains absolutely committed to not moving forward with additional drilling on public lands." And said that the Biden administration "had no choice" to put out new drilling leases, "but they also found ways to reduce the size of that and its impact." She also said that "we are making an irreversible change towards clean energy that no court is going to block because we're doing it in a legally solid way."
