According to Texas Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham, President Joe Biden’s recent decision to halt approval of Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) exports appears to be more of a retaliatory move than a well-thought-out policy decision.
Commissioner Buckingham pointed out that this announcement came just one day after Texas took a strong stance in protecting its border against foreign intruders.
On January 26, President Biden announced a temporary pause on pending decisions related to the export of Liquified Natural Gas, as reported by Breitbart News.
Coincidentally, this date also marked the deadline set by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in a letter addressed to the State of Texas, demanding access to Shelby Park in Eagle Pass.
It is worth noting that despite these demands, the State has remained firm in its refusal to open up the park which was seized earlier this month.
“Texas is the largest exporter of natural gas in the nation and the third in the world,” Commissioner Buckingham told Breitbart Texas. “This reckless federal decision made merely a day after Texas took a bold stand in defending our border against foreign invaders appears more like retaliation than a sound policy decision.”

Buckingham holds the position of commissioner at the Texas General Land Office, where he is responsible for managing a vast expanse of mineral-rich land spanning over 13 million acres.
The State of Texas utilizes severance taxes collected from production rights to finance education initiatives.
“I will always defend Texas’ right to energy independence and stand up for the hardworking families and countless Texas schoolchildren this move will harm,” the commissioner stated.
