The Biden administration is weighing whether to approve a major oil project on Alaska's North Slope. The project would produce up to 180,000 barrels of oil a day, and supporters say it would benefit Indigenous communities in the region.

If the administration approves the project, it would be a betrayal by Biden, who promised during the 2020 campaign to end new oil and gas drilling on federal lands.
