Trump to propose relaxing oil and gas methane rules

Donald Trump is set to propose easing federal methane regulations for the oil and gas industry, rolling back restrictions on leaks from drilling and pipeline operations. The move is expected to draw sharp criticism from environmental groups who warn it would increase greenhouse gas emissions, while industry backers argue the current rules impose costly burdens on energy producers.

Why now: Rolling back methane rules is a significant environmental policy shift affecting the energy industry and climate commitments.
