The administration has blocked a proposed industrial road needed to mine copper in the middle of the state, and has banned oil drilling on 13 million acres in the North Slope.
I’m always surprised by how little people think Biden has done. It’s not even because they don’t pay attention to the news; it’s just that the news barely, if at all, covers Biden’s accomplishments in office. They still focus so much on Trump, and other culture war BS, because it activates emotions, gets views, and drives engagement.
Edit: The lists got much shorter after the 2022 elections when Republicans took the house and basically have stalled the government.
That particular thread also has links to Trumps years in office, so not an exclusive Biden thing. I didn’t read it, but a commenter states that most of it was just undoing what Obama had done in office.
Wow.
I’m a little shocked, but good on you Biden.
Why are you shocked? It’s one of his core policies:

Because he’s promised a lot of things that he’s done next to nothing about. That’s why.
He’s actually done a lot that he’s promised on, just not to the extent he has promised.
If the Dems held the house it might’ve been possible to deliver on even more.
The number one thing I’ve got against him (that everyone should hold against him) is supporting the Palestinian Genocide.
But I acknowledge that Trump would’ve done the same, if not even moreso given the way he and Bibi got along.

Not to promote Reddit, but since long before the Reddit migrations to Lemmy, there has been a community tracking most of it (for anyone that actually wants to go through it): https://www.reddit.com/r/WhatBidenHasDone/comments/1abyvpa/the_complete_list_what_biden_has_done/
