President Donald Trump today signed an executive order that will roll back restrictions on oil drilling in the Arctic.
Trump said at a White House signing ceremony, "Today, we're unleashing American energy and clearing the way for thousands and thousands of high-paying energy jobs."
The order also directs his energy secretary to review regulations overseeing drilling and former President Barack Obama's five-year drilling plan.
It's Trump's latest move to undo his predecessor's environmental protection efforts in his first 100 days in office.
