Alaska’s Right to Produce Act of 2023
This bill requires the Secretary of the Interior to immediately reinstate canceled oil and gas leases in Alaska's Coastal Plain (specifically tracts 16, 17, 24, 26, 27, and 30) by accepting the highest valid bids from the 2021 lease sale within 30 days of enactment. It mandates a second lease sale by December 2024, withdraws the Bureau of Land Management's proposed rule on the National Petroleum Reserve, and nullifies Executive Order 13990 and Secretarial Order 3401 that had paused leasing. The bill also blocks judicial review of agency actions related to the leasing program and directs agencies to process existing permits and approvals under the 2020 Record of Decision. It directly affects federal agencies (Interior, EPA), oil companies holding or seeking leases, and the management of the Coastal Plain oil and gas program.
