President Trump has nominated Kathleen Sgamma to oversee the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), which manages 245 million acres of public land. Sgamma, who leads the Western Energy Alliance, has a history of advocating for the oil and gas industry, particularly in efforts to remove regulations on fossil fuel extraction. This nomination aligns with the Trump administration’s strategy to enhance energy dominance by prioritizing oil and gas interests, as directed by Interior Secretary Doug Burgum. The Senate committee has yet to schedule a hearing for her confirmation.
Kathleen Sgamma’s nomination to lead the Bureau of Land Management reflects President Trump’s agenda to aggressively promote oil and gas extraction from public lands.
Sgamma, president of the Western Energy Alliance, has spent nearly two decades advocating for independent oil and gas companies, pushing to reduce federal regulations.
