"A federal court has halted the Biden administration’s pause on new approvals for natural gas exports.
Judge James Cain, a Trump appointee in Louisiana, approved a request from Republican-led states to lift the pause while the litigation against it plays out.
“The Court will grant Plaintiffs’ Motion for Preliminary Injunction, and order that the LNG Export Ban be stayed in its entirety, effective immediately,” Cain wrote.
The Biden administration announced in January that it would pause approvals of new permissions to ship natural gas abroad to countries that don’t have free trade with the U.S."
