Abstract

US President George W. Bush lifted a presidential ban on oil and gas leasing on the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) on 14 July 2008 and called on the US Congress to lift moratoriums on oil and gas leasing on the OCS. Republican members of the US Congress approved of the action while Democrats condemned it.
