Contributing sentiments towards policy:

50% : Biden has also pushed through new Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rules that will limit tailpipe emissions from future trucks and passenger vehicles and strengthen the reporting requirements of methane emissions from oil and natural gas operations.
42% : Two of goals for a Trump-run Department of Energy: "Unleash private-sector energy innovation by ending government interference in energy decisions" and "Stop the war on oil and natural gas."
39% : The Project 2025 proposal, which outlines what Trump would do early in a second term, spells out the approach that his administration would likely take regarding oil and gas production -- which the former president strongly advocated for while in office.
38% : In April 2024, Trump suggested to a group of wealthy oil executives assembled at Mar-a-Lago that they should collectively raise $1 billion to help him win a second term in order to dismantle regulations that they oppose, according to The Washington Post.
36% : Per the newspaper, Trump then stated that such a sum would amount to a "deal," as the executives would avoid more stringent rules with him in the Oval Office.
27% : That same day, Biden also revoked a key presidential permit for the Keystone XL oil pipeline, a project championed by Trump but opposed by many Democrats, environmental groups, and an array of Native American communities.
14% : Trump has also railed against Biden's strong support of electric vehicles, arguing that their ramped-up production will hurt the economy.
