2024 Recent Vote
Representative Pete Stauber (R-MN) sponsored H.R. 6285, the so-called Alaska’s Right to Produce Act of 2023, which would threaten millions of acres of wildlands in America’s Arctic. The bill would mandate that seven illegal Trump administration oil leases be reissued in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, threatening the calving grounds of the herd of over 200,000 Porcupine Caribou. Harming the caribou herd also threatens the Gwich’in People who have depended on this herd for millennia. The bill would also eliminate new conservation protections for 13 million acres of designated special areas in the Western Arctic and repeal longstanding protections from oil and gas development on 125 million acres of the Arctic Ocean. On May 1, the House approved H.R. 6285 by a vote of 214-199 (House roll call vote 174). NO IS THE PRO-ENVIRONMENT VOTE.
