63% : "Trump has vowed to establish what he calls American "energy dominance" around the world as he seeks to boost U.S. oil and gas drilling and move away from Biden's focus on climate change.
38% : Earlier in his term, Trump had initially moved to vastly expand offshore drilling, before retreating amid widespread opposition in Florida and other coastal states.
33% : "Cities and towns large and small oppose the industrialization of the Atlantic and are increasingly seeing stronger storms and flooding and face serious threats from rising sea levels.
19% : Trump himself has a complicated history on offshore drilling.
13% : Trump on Monday declared that, after he's inaugurated on Jan. 20, Biden's drilling ban will "be changed on day one.""I will unban it immediately" Trump told conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt.
13% : The National Ocean Industries Association, which represents offshore drillers, called Biden's decision "a strategic error, driven not by science or voter mandate, but by political motives.''
